Property Description for 123 Prospect Place, 1
Located in a grand, five-story brownstone at the intersection of Park Slope and Prospect Heights, this lovely garden duplex offers tons of space with a unique and flexible layout and its own private garden oasis. Hang your coats and hats in the wonderful foyer entrance before stepping into this fantastic apartment. The open kitchen / dining/ living area has a wood burning fireplace, lovely hardwood floors and a renovated kitchen with marble countertops and Miele, Blue Star and Fischer Paykal appliances. Down the hall (which has exposed brick “cut outs”) you’ll find the stairs leading to the den, the two bedrooms and the bath. The master bedroom has an enormous closet with custom built-ins. The renovated five-piece bath has a deep soaking tub as well as a shower stall. A door in the second bedroom leads you to the serene private patio and garden which measures over 550 square feet! The outdoor space can also be accessed through the large finished den on the lower level complete with a built-in home office. The lower level gets great natural light through two windows and the door. Washer and dryers are allowed in the unit and there is a large storage area in the basement. The building also had a common roof deck which offers sweeping views of Brooklyn and the Manhattan skyline. A few blocks to Prospect Park, one block from the B/Q trains, three blocks from the 2/3 trains, four blocks from Atlantic Terminal (4/5 trains among others) and around the corner from all the great shops and restaurants of Flatbush, the location is superb. Pet friendly too!

Prospect Heights | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Prospect Heights is a small residential neighborhood surrounded by big attractions. It’s rich in culture and offers the perfect blend of old Brooklyn charm and modern-day hipness.
Residents of this tight-knit community include young professionals, families and long-time residents. It’s a walkers paradise - just steps from Prospect Park and a short walking distance to neighborhoods like Downtown Brooklyn, Fort Green and Clinton. You’re close to culture too. Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Library, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Barclays Center are all nearby.
Prospect Heights is bordered by Flatbush Avenue to the west, Washington Avenue to the east, Atlantic Avenue and Dean Street to the north and Eastern Parkway to the south.
Prospect Heights, like many areas of New York City, was first inhabited by indigenous tribes and eventually settled by the Dutch and turned into farmland.
A significant part of the Revolutionary War was fought in Prospect Heights and the surrounding areas. Known as the Battle of Brooklyn, it was the first military engagement following the Declaration of Independence. Things didn’t go so well for American forces so they retreated and the British occupied Manhattan for several years after the Battle of Brooklyn.
In 1867, the opening of Prospect Park caused major housing growth in Prospect Heights. The middle-class neighborhood was soon populated by Jewish, Italian, and Irish workers. Many of which were shop-owners or employed as laborers in nearby factories.
Housing in Prospect Heights includes single-family row houses, historic townhouses, co-ops, and new luxury condos. The median listed price for a 1-bedroom in Prospect Heights is $680,000 with an average price per square foot is $944.
The neighborhood's commercial artery runs along Vanderbilt Avenue and Washington Avenue. The variety of businesses adds to the charm of the neighborhood. They include bars, pubs, restaurants and mom-and-pop stores of all types. The shops and eateries are a perfect alternative to the big-name attractions that bracket the neighborhood. It's a little bit of everything in this neighborhood.
Subways are plentiful in Prospect Heights. Its proximity to Manhattan is another perk of the neighborhood. It's about a half-hour train ride. The B, D, N, Q, R, 2, 3, 4 and 5 subway lines all serve the Atlantic Avenue/Barclays Center station. 2, 3, 4, B and Q trains cover the neighborhood and the A and C trains are nearby too.
