Property Description for 9 Prospect Park West, 14-A
This exceptional Classic 8 with 4+ bedrooms and 5 baths on a high floor in one of Park Slope's most coveted luxury buildings reflects the highest of pre-war sensibilities. Its renovation accentuates and enhances all of the apartment's original good bones.
The keyhole-shaped book-lined gallery with custom hand-painted borders on the floors is only a taste of the meticulous attention to detail paid by the current owners. A gracious layout allows for flow between the dining room, living room, library, and gallery, creating long, bright sight lines and a great space for entertaining. Custom pocket doors make it easy to close off spaces as needed. The living room with its beautiful custom coffered ceiling, decorative marble fireplace and 18th century French wallpaper panel, the library (4th bedroom) and formal dining room with hand painted floor detail, all have wonderful skyline and/or harbor views.
The huge kitchen, including the breakfast area, is a tribute to pre-war style with its custom white inset cabinets and architectural glass reminiscent of the '20s and '30s, honed Pietra Santa granite and cabinetry resembling the original butler's pantry. The home chef will appreciate the 48" Viking 6 burner gas range with griddle, convection oven and infra-red broiler, the 48" side by side Sub Zero refrigerator, the farmhouse sink. the additional prep sink, 2 Bosch dishwashers, and additional beverage refrigerator. A service hall leads to a large laundry area, full bath and office/maid's room.
Accessed from the gallery, the bedroom wing includes three spacious bedrooms, all with en suite baths, a large linen closet and a very spacious storage closet. The master bedroom has magnificent views of Prospect Park and on a clear day...all the way to the ocean!
Special features include upgraded electric supply, new oak floors in the gallery, dining room and kitchen, new custom, pre-war style window frames, door frames, baseboards and crown moldings, new double-paned windows, built-in sound speakers in the living room, dining room and kitchen, dedicated AC lines in all rooms, 2 installed AC units above the windows in the kitchen (total of 9 AC units included), built-in bookcases, custom radiator covers in all the rooms, thermostatically adjustable steam radiators, California Closets systems, hard wired phone, cable, and Internet lines and sound insulation between the gallery and elevator.
9 Prospect Park West is a white glove full service building with a 24 hour doorman, full time super and porter. A dedicated storage room is in the basement. No dogs please. Showings by appointment only.

Quick Profile
Boasting beautiful tree-lined streets, brownstones and a range of activities for all age groups, Park Slope is consistently ranked as one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods. Filled with lush parks and greenery, the neighborhood is also known for its rare combination of excellent public schools, award-winning restaurants, nightlife, small independently owned businesses and community gardens.
Situated at the western slope of Prospect Park, the neighborhood is divided into different sections: North Slope, Center Slope and South Slope. Depending on who you ask, of course, the definitions of where these borders end and begin may vary (is the divide between North and Center deemed Union Street, Garfield Place, 1st Street or 3rd Street? The one between Center and South 6th Street, 9th Street, 11th Street or 15th Street?).
Regardless of what part of the Slope you find yourself on, there’s no shortage of architectural beauty. From row houses to brownstones to mansions, the idyllic setting of the neighborhood is further enhanced by its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Case in point of this is also two of the area’s most well-known churches, Park Slope United Methodist Church and Saint Augustine Roman Catholic Church.
Revered for its family-friendly appeal, Park Slope is often regarded as one of the best places to raise a family in New York City. That said, it doesn’t mean that parents don’t know how to have a good time... a slew of bars constantly opening in the neighborhood ranging from the high-end cocktail saloon to the dive (well, by Park Slope standards, anyway).
