Property Description for 428 Prospect Place, 4-L

Featuring an expansive rooftop paradise, this radiant two-plus bedroom apartment is a rare find. On a pretty tree-lined street, steps from Washington Ave, in an elegant four-story brownstone, a quiet top-floor unit is ready to be someone’s new home. Even on the cloudiest days, this apartment is naturally bright as there are two windows in every room. The eat-in kitchen opens to the living room, creating an expansive, practical space. Entering the hall, a set of French doors offer privacy - separating living and bedroom zones. Along the hall you will find: - An airy second bedroom with a step-in closet, - A windowed, renovated bathroom with wainscoting detail and a deep soaking tub - Three large closets At the end of the hall is a master bedroom that deserves its name. Over 17ft long, and with high ceilings, a king sized-bed (or two) won’t cramp this space. The closet is spacious with custom shelving. The only thing that will overfill this room is the sunlight rushing in through two big windows. The dream of “just one extra room” can be real. See it here - attached to the master bedroom - also flooding with natural light. This “plus” room is large enough to accommodate a kitchen table - for those who got used to working on one. The private rooftop space is accessible one short flight up from the entrance of the apartment. Let your imagination run the length of the building - so much can be done with this amount of outdoor space. Currently, it is used as an al fresco dining option and a sunny, or moonlit, VIP lounge with skyline views. In addition: - Unit comes with a large storage area in the basement - There is a common laundry room, though washer/dryer is permitted in the unit - Pets are welcome All walking distance in ten minutes or less: Underhill Playground, the Vanderbilt strip, Prospect Park, Brooklyn Central Library, Botanic Garden, Saturday Farmer’s market, Ample Hills. This home is part of a well-maintained 8 unit co-op building with no upcoming assessments and no underlying mortgage.

Crown Heights | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Originally known as Crown Hill by the Lenape Indians that lived there, Crown Heights has evolved into a diverse neighborhood, occupied primarily by Hasidic Jews and one of the largest Caribbean populations to be found anywhere outside of the West Indies. 

Head over to Nostrand Avenue, one of the main West Indian commercial areas in the neighborhood, which is lined with stores that have been in those exact same places for generations, providing their goods and services to area residents. Kingston Avenue has similar commercial activities that support the Jewish community, and Franklin Avenue shows the most signs of change and gentrification, with an ever-expanding mix of yoga studios, coffee shops, and organic grocery stores that serve the influx of young professionals. No matter which of these areas you visit, you will find an interesting mix of businesses that you wouldn’t normally picture as existing side-by-side. It is all part of the cultural diversity of Crown Heights.

The neighborhood is bisected, from east to west, by Eastern Parkway, which is a beautiful, 3-mile-long boulevard lined with mature trees. This leafy oasis was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, famed designer of Central Park, the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina, and the U. S. Capitol in Washington, D. C.

You will find a mix of low-rise apartment buildings, large middle-class elevator buildings, brownstones, and some luxury buildings. Century-old architecture stands next to modern residential developments in a visually interesting mix of styles, much as the diversity of the residents exists. People who would not normally meet and mix are forging new pathways to cultural understanding by working, living, and playing together in the same neighborhood.
