Property Description for 243 McDonald Ave, 5-F

This incredibly spacious two-bedroom apartment in the coveted Windsor Terrace neighborhood offers unique opportunity to live in a well-maintained elevator building with a vibrant sense of community and excellent amenities-all within walking distance of the best that brownstone Brooklyn has to offer. The sprawling fifth-floor home spans just over 1,000 square feet, with gleaming hardwood floors running throughout, complemented by lots of natural light streaming in via multiple exposures. A large foyer opens into the open-plan living and dining room, which, along with an adjacent gallery space, provides generous room for living and entertaining. The beautifully renovated windowed eat-in kitchen includes a dishwasher, ample counter space and custom cabinetry. Dual exposures in the corner master bedroom provide plenty of natural light, and the second bedroom and bathroom are also windowed. There are six large closets throughout the apartment and all finishes have been completely renovated. This is truly a turn-key home. This stately elevator building is in excellent condition, a 100% owner-occupied coop complex surrounded by manicured green lawns. The building has a live-in super, plus on-site amenities including a private courtyard, bike room, recreation room, storage and laundry. MAINTENANCE INCLUDES ALL UTILITIES INCLUDING CABLE & INTERNET. Cats are allowed. Sorry, no dogs. Windsor Terrace is one of Brooklyn's most beloved neighborhoods, a serene corner of the borough tucked in between the leafy green expanses of Prospect Park and Green-Wood Cemetery. Brancaccio's Food Shop, Steeplechase Coffee, Jaya Yoga and an array of restaurants are all just around the corner from the apartment, while the F/G trains are just five minutes from the front door, providing rapid transportation to anywhere in Brooklyn or Manhattan.

Windsor Terrace | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

The tiny, comma-shaped neighborhood of Windsor Terrace is bookended between two of Brooklyn’s largest green spaces, Prospect Park and the massive Green-Wood cemetery. Aside from the presence of the Prospect Park Expressway, which dissects the neighborhood in two, this residential community offers a suburban sensibility with its tree-lined streets, low volume traffic and the low height character of its streetscape.  

Many homes in the area are low to the ground, lending a suburban feel to the neighborhood, and the area has been down-zoned to maintain its low-rise appeal and character. There are plentiful brick row houses that have very low turnover. If you are lucky enough to buy or rent one, you tend to hold on to it. There are also small apartment buildings, private homes, condos and multi-family homes in a wide price range

There is commercial development along Prospect Park West, Fort Hamilton Parkway and Prospect Avenue, but even these new stores and restaurants are mostly family-owned and operated, maintaining the small-town charm. The pace of life is slower. The schools are good, which is a big draw for families with young children. The people are friendly, which gives a real sense of neighborhood and community to Windsor Terrace.
