Property Description for 225 Park Place, 3-EF
This is the enormous and beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 bath home you have been waiting for. Two oversized apartments in a pre-war, elevator building were combined to make this one sprawling home. It has all of the wonderful pre-war details you would expect in a building of this era: parquet floors in the living room, oak plank flooring throughout otherwise, original moldings, and arched doorways.
There is a gorgeous eat in kitchen that will delight any cook. It has custom modern wood cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances including a massive Thermador professional stove with external ventilating range hood, Bosch dishwasher, double door refrigerator and an under-counter wine refrigerator. The hall bathroom was recently renovated. It has a large bathtub, glass enclosed shower, gorgeous marble floor tiles, and a custom vanity topped with a marble top and an inset sink.
The master bedroom suite is lovely and oversized. It has 3 closets and a full bathroom. It also has a lovely corner exposure and plenty of room for a king sized bed. The 2nd bedroom is just as large as the master bedroom. The third bedroom has two adjoining rooms separated by a wide open archway. This home has a wonderful corner location. Its 13 windows allow light in throughout the day. Great closet space throughout the apartment and there is locked storage in the basement as well.
This is a great building. It has a doorman on duty between 5-11pm daily and a live-in super. There is also a bike room. There is a large common courtyard and backyard patio space available for use by all residents as well. 225 Park Place is just a few blocks from Prospect Park and the 2/3/B/Q trains. Just a short stroll to the fabulous Farmer's Market at Grand Army Plaza on Saturdays, the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden and the main branch of the Brooklyn Public Library. Conveniently located near wonderful restaurants, cafes, gyms and parking garages.

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.
