Property Description for 135 Eastern Parkway, 4-F

A CLASSIC 7 SHOWSTOPPER! This big, grand and glamourous apartment will take your breath away. From the moment you enter this stylish, architect-designed home it’s evident that no detail went unnoticed and no expense was spared in its transformation. The exceptional care and craftsmanship that went into its design is apparent everywhere you look. The objective was to create a luxuriously modern space, while still honoring its classic lines and prewar heritage. Expert millwork, stylish hardware and designer details can be seen throughout, while the home's rich history is revealed in its high beamed ceilings, thick plaster walls and carefully restored vintage metal doors. The rift and quartered oak herringbone floor that runs throughout the apartment is truly exquisite and a design element in itself. It’s light and lovely with fifteen windows across three exposures highlighting post-card worthy views of the Brooklyn Museum and Botanic Garden. Enjoy all day sunshine and magnificent sunsets every day of the year. There are three large bedrooms, an expansive light-filled living room, a spacious dining room, a custom-built breakfast nook, two full baths, a powder room, a welcoming foyer and a maid’s room. The kitchen is a chef’s dream with its marble counters, custom cabinetry, brass hardware, and top-of-the-line appliance package including a commercial grade Lacanche Savigny range, externally-exhausted hood, Sub-Zero fridge and wine fridge. The designer baths are outfitted with stunning marble and Perrin and Rowe fixtures. The renovations extend to the infrastructure with updated electrical, all new risers and branch lines. Its many other features include ample closet space, a laundry closet, restored mouldings and baseboards, solid-core doors and custom built-ins. Built in 1926, Turner Towers remains one of NYC’s most iconic landmark buildings. It offers concrete construction (which allows for exceptional soundproofing), white glove services, an elegant marble lobby, a top-of-the-line gym, a professionally landscaped tea garden and basement storage (upon availability). It's situated on the nation's first parkway, designed by Central Park’s Frederick Olmsted and designated a National Scenic Landmark in 1978. The neighborhood’s destination cafes and restaurants are at your fingertips including: Mayfield’s, Oxalis, Tooker Alley and the legendary Tom’s Diner. The 2/3 trains are right outside your door and it's across the street from Brooklyn’s cultural heart: The Brooklyn Botanic Garden, The Brooklyn Museum and Prospect Park. Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to own a piece of classic NYC history.

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.
