Property Description for 135 Eastern Parkway, 1-C
Expansive and utterly peaceful, fully renovated classic three-bedroom pre-war apartment at Turner Towers - a highly coveted full-service, deco-era building located on the most picturesque stretch of the Eastern Parkway boulevard in Prospect Heights. Escape the bustle of the boulevard through the grand and beautifully restored marble lobby of the building, bypass the elevator, and let serenity wash over as you go directly through your door and arrive into an over-sized entry foyer. The stillness of this apartment is palpable.
Ahead, through a set of French doors, is a formal dining room with herringbone hardwood floors which connects to an impressively large windowed country kitchen with a center island and breakfast bar. This kitchen is a chef's dream, with a capacious amount of custom Shaker cabinetry, expansive granite countertops, subway tile backsplashes, stainless steel appliances and even a conveniently located powder room. Off the kitchen is long hallway pantry area and a full laundry room.
Another set of French doors off the foyer leads to a comfortable living room with a high beamed ceiling, picture moldings and original hardwood parquet floors. Also radiating off of the foyer, a hallway leading to the apartment's three bedrooms allows for maximum privacy and separation of space. The bedrooms are all quite large, big enough for king-sized beds, and both the en-suite master bathroom and additional full bathroom have been beautifully renovated with radiant-heated basketweave marble floors and subway tiled walls.
This apartment is generous in proportions, SPECTACULAR in location: the 2/3 subway is right outside the building entrance (15min to Manhattan); Prospect Park, the Botanical Garden and the world-renowned Brooklyn Museum are all right across the street; the main Brooklyn Library and Farmers' Market are just down the street. And around corner on Washington Avenue one will find an abundance of restaurants, bars and services all within a few blocks.
Built in 1926, Turner Towers was considered Brooklyn's first residential high rise and epitome of luxury at the time. The pet-friendly building features a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, new 20 piece laundry room, fully-equipped gym, children's playroom, bike room, basement storage and a common garden.

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.
