Property Description for 295 Saint Johns Place, 2-F
Beautifully laid out and incredibly spacious, Apt 2F is located in prime Prospect Heights in a classic, pre-war, elevator building.
This 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath co-op is over 1100 SF and retains the gracious flow and generous proportions of a bygone era. The well appointed foyer allows one to calmly transition into the home, drop their keys, hang their bags and walk into the warm and welcoming living room. Four large windows line the back wall of the living and dining area allowing natural sunlight to stream in. Adjacent to the living room, is a formal separate dining room that could be used as a 3rd bedroom. In the alternative, the archway between the rooms could be taken down to create a bright and spacious open concept design. Off the foyer is a powder room with pretty blue floor tile and a front closet.
The windowed galley kitchen has a backsplash made of Talavera Mexican tiles, abundant cabinetry and GE Profile appliances. A hallway featuring built-in picture shelves separates the living area from the sleeping quarters. In the rear you will find 2 equally large bedrooms and a full bath. Best of all there is a washer/dryer in the apartment and a large private storage cell is included.
295 St. John's Place is a 54 unit pre-war, elevator, co-op with a gorgeous Art Deco lobby and a beautifully manicured, shared courtyard. The building is pet-friendly, has bike storage and a live-in super.
Nestled just off Grand Army Plaza, this location can't be beat. Prospect Park, the 2,3,4,5,B,Q trains, the Brooklyn Public Library, the Brooklyn Museum, the Botanic Gardens, and the Saturday Farmers’ Market are a stone's throw away. Also close by are many outstanding eateries and amenities: Union Market, Crunch Gym, Citibike, Parking Garage, Brooklyn Larder, Olmsted, FAUN, Alta Calidad, La Lou and many more.
Zoned for PS 9.

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.
