Property Description for 40 Prospect Park West, 5-A
A Rare Find
This much sought-after park-facing two bed / two bath corner apartment has a spectacular layout and treetop views from every window, and is the only apartment of its kind on the market. If you are seeking the perfect combination of location, space, views, and light in a well-established and financially sound pre-war elevator co-op, then look no further. You’ve found your new home.
All The Space You Could Need
Every room in this apartment is oversized. From the entry gallery which accommodates a formal dining area, to the massive living room which easily allows for a full home office, to the eat-in-kitchen, to the two very generously designed bedrooms, this space will make you wonder how you ever got by with less.
Classic and Timeless
Prewar design meets modern sensibilities. Rich hardwood floors and arched doorways are complemented by a windowed kitchen boasting contemporary design and plenty of room for expansion should you choose. Both of the baths are windowed and have been updated with clean, neutral renovations as well.
Your Own Sanctuary
Both bedrooms are separate from the living spaces and are bright, spacious, and oh-so-quiet. The main bedroom features two leafy exposures and has ample room for a king bed set and home office space if desired, and has an ensuite bath. The second bedroom also faces the park and can comfortably fit several beds and/or a work or play-space.
Storage for Days
Two double-deep closets greet you upon entry, in addition to a hall/linen closet and multiple bedroom closets. The unit also comes with basement storage (for a small fee), a city-living essential.
Your New Home Awaits
40 Prospect Park West is one of the most desirable addresses in Park Slope. On top of having the park at your doorstep, residents of this pet-friendly building also enjoy a part-time doorman, live-in super, central laundry room, and bicycle storage. Local amenities include easy access to the 2/3/B/Q/F/G trains as well as the Grand Army Greenmarket, Park Slope Food Coop, Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and a multitude of shopping and dining options on 7th and 5th Aves, Vanderbilt Ave, and Flatbush.

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).
