Property Description for 827 Prospect Place, 2
NO FEE!
Situated among free standing mansions on one of the finest landmarked blocks of the Crown Heights historic district, this unique loft-like apartment encompasses the upper two floors of a handsome, semi-detached colonial revival townhouse built in 1907 and designed by the prominent architect Axel Hedman. With 2,500SF of interior living space, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a 100SF terrace, this home has a wonderful feeling of grandeur not easily found in a Brooklyn townhouse.
Through historic iron-grilled entry doors and up a flight of stairs to an expansive main level that stretches a remarkable 80ft deep, with a 20ft width, near 10ft high ceiling and four exposures with 18 windows bathing this floor with natural light all day long. The feeling of space on this floor is profound and makes it perfect for entertaining. Lovingly maintained original details include herringbone wood floors, plaster moldings, stained glass windows, wood framed window surrounds, wainscoting and two walls with recently uncovered vintage wallpaper. In the rear is a sprawling eat-in country kitchen with a full bathroom. A home chef's dream, with an 8-burner range (w/ vented exhaust), double oven, dishwasher, pantry closet and a vast amount of delightfully tiled counter space and cabinet storage. A small terrace off the kitchen's dining area offers a pleasant and private outdoor respite surrounded by lush bamboo.
The upper floor features a massive, full-width primary bedroom in front with charming bay window and decorative fireplace with original carved wood mirrored mantel. Two smaller bedrooms are in the rear and share a luxuriously sized bathroom with double sink vanity, deep soaking tub and oversized shower stall.Additional features include a washer/dryer, central AC, radiator heat and a central exhaust system.
Lined with towering old growth trees and a stunning set of 19th and early 20th century mansions, townhomes and apartment houses, this block of Prospect Place is recognized as one of the grandest in all of Brooklyn. Conveniently located between Nostrand and New York Avenues, within blocks to a plethora of great restaurants, bars and shopping on Nostrand and Franklin Avenues, as well as the express subway stop of the A/C (15 minutes to Manhattan!) and 2, 3, 5 & Prospect Park shuttle trains. Brower Park and the Brooklyn Children's Museum only 1.5 blocks away.
Guarantors allowed. Available June 1st.

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.
