Property Description for 40 Prospect Park West, 2-C

Live the Park Slope Life! Prospect Park West is the grand Avenue that defines both Prospect Park and the Park Slope destination that homeowners have aspired to for over a century. Apartment 2C at 40 Prospect Park West is indeed something to aspire to - a spacious and gracious two Bedroom home with views of the Olmstead & Vaux designed Prospect Park. Perched on the corner of the building with three exposures, there is wonderful light and ample breezes. The entrance hall leads to a generous Dining area that turns to flow into the large Living Room. The modern Kitchen awaits your bounty from the Farmers Market just down the street at Grand Army Plaza. The Master Bedroom is not just sizable but versatile with an area that can be a separate office/nursery/meditation space. The Second Bedroom is on the corner of the building with light flooding in. Closets are a-plenty and there is private storage in the basement. This elevator building has new laundry facilities, bike storage and a live-in Super. Best of all is your proximity to all things Park Slope. Literally across the street is your own entrance to the park with it's Dog Run, Playground and the Long Meadow - you will see why Olmsted & Vaux say they liked Prospect Park better than Central Park. Continuing down Prospect Park West, you will see the prestigious buildings that house Poly Prep Day School, the Society for Ethical Culture and the Litchfield Villa. Within walking distance are the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, the Brooklyn Museum and the Barclay Center. There is also the world class shopping and dining along 5th Avenue and 7th Avenue as well as a bevy of subway options; the B, Q, F, G, R, 2 and 3 trains are an easy stroll away. Live the Park Slope life - live at 40 Prospect Park West #2C.

Park Slope | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Boasting beautiful tree-lined streets, brownstones and a range of activities for all age groups, Park Slope is consistently ranked as one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods. Filled with lush parks and greenery, the neighborhood is also known for its rare combination of excellent public schools, award-winning restaurants, nightlife, small independently owned businesses and community gardens.

Situated at the western slope of Prospect Park, the neighborhood is divided into different sections: North Slope, Center Slope and South Slope. Depending on who you ask, of course, the definitions of where these borders end and begin may vary (is the divide between North and Center deemed Union Street, Garfield Place, 1st Street or 3rd Street? The one between Center and South 6th Street, 9th Street, 11th Street or 15th Street?). 

Regardless of what part of the Slope you find yourself on, there’s no shortage of architectural beauty. From row houses to brownstones to mansions, the idyllic setting of the neighborhood is further enhanced by its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Case in point of this is also two of the area’s most well-known churches, Park Slope United Methodist Church and Saint Augustine Roman Catholic Church. 

Revered for its family-friendly appeal, Park Slope is often regarded as one of the best places to raise a family in New York City. That said, it doesn’t mean that parents don’t know how to have a good time... a slew of bars constantly opening in the neighborhood ranging from the high-end cocktail saloon to the dive (well, by Park Slope standards, anyway).
