Property Description for 233 Park Place, 29

Gorgeous. Beautiful. Stunning. Shall we go on? We really can't say enough about this architect-designed (and incredibly flexible) one-plus bedroom co-op centrally located in leafy Prospect Heights. From the moment you enter you'll feel right at home, so don't be surprised if you immediately consider this 'the one' from the get-go. Dappled light filters through the tree-lined street into your south(ish) facing bedroom which very cleverly incorporates an attached office - perfect for the work at home types. Additionally, there's an ultra-useful windowed den currently used by the youngest member, and ready to be repurposed to your exacting needs. Does your shoe collection need a new home, or will this be where you park your yoga mat and weights? Regardless, you can close the pocket doors whenever you need a little separation - or just to hide your treasures! A walk-in closet is the cherry on top. A hallway joins the bedroom/den/study with a fabulous living room which has all the pre-war charm you could ever want - decorative fireplace and a rather unique built-in cabinet with original stained-glass fittings. There's plenty of room for your dining table and a comfortable sofa here too, and the courtyard facing window provides plenty of light and fresh air. Right off the entry vestibule, you'll find the beautifully renovated bathroom and kitchen: classic grey herringbone floor tiles meet classic white subway tiles on the wall for an easy, timeless look that never goes out of style. Your galley style kitchen next door gets direct morning light and the breakfast nook is the perfect place to wake up with a morning coffee. A stylish Fisher and Paykel four-burner setup will make dining in a breeze (and a pleasure), and the in-unit washer/dryer is just what you need to handle laundry days. So let's talk location: close to perfection! Everything you can imagine is in easy reach here, whether it is Prospect Park or the Botanical Gardens for a little outdoor activity or the fabulous restaurants, cafes, and bars that populate Vanderbilt Ave just a stone's throw away. You'll find the weekly Farmer's Market at Grand Army Plaza along with just about every Brooklyn subway line. Just about. Pets upon approval, self-managed co-op with communal front yard, basement storage. In-person showings: We care about your safety! Please take the time to 'walk through' our 360 Virtual Tour posted on our website, then reach out to us, the seller’s agents, to ask any questions you may have about the property prior to scheduling an in-person viewing. Once we have your pre-approval letter (or proof of funds) we will set a time to meet, and kindly ask for 48hrs notice for all showing requests. We genuinely feel this approach will limit potential exposure!

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.
