Property Description for 191 Saint Marks Ave, 3-E
(CALL FOR APPOINTMENT) PERFECTION IN PRIME PROSPECT HEIGHTS! This beautiful, classic apartment has been masterfully renovated from top to bottom! From the moment you enter, this home will make you smile. Great care was taken to preserve its quintessential Brooklyn charm while re-imagining every square inch into usable, practical space. Every modern convenience was incorporated into its sophisticated style. 10-ft ceilings and 11 windows along 3 exposures allow it to feel luxuriously open, bright and airy. The elegant foyer is brightened by a chic and sparkling chandelier. The bay windows in the expansive living room showcase peaceful green views and soft sunshine. The stunning kitchen is truly the heart of the home with its stone countertops, two-toned custom cabinetry, brass fixtures, a butler’s pantry, a high-end appliance package, garbage disposal and subway tile backsplash. A gallery hallway allows for a nice separation from the two generously sized bedrooms and two full baths. The master bedroom is complete with a grand walk-in closet and a master bath. Both baths have been smartly renovated with elegant tile work and a double vanity and rainfall shower in the master.
Its many other features include: your own washer/dryer, pristine blonde oak floors, dedicated basement storage, wired 1GB Ethernet, built-in speaker system, designer lighting, Runtal baseboard radiators and custom closets with pivot doors. The electrical was upgraded to allow for a split a/c system (with board approval).
You’re located on one of the neighborhood's prettiest historically significant landmark blocks. Situated on the 3rd floor of a well-established walkup coop, you're a heartbeat away from the 2/3 and B/Q trains (only 3 stops to Manhattan!), Prospect Park and Grand Army Plaza. Plus you have all of Prospect Height's and Park Slope's wonderful cafes and shops at your fingertips! On top of all that your monthly maintenance costs are incomparably low, which represent one of the best values in Brownstone Brooklyn! This combination of location, elegance, sophistication and VALUE is rarely found and offers a quality of life you may not have thought possible. (NO DOGS, SORRY)

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.
