1 Prospect Park W #5H, New York City, NY 11215

Description

THE PARK. THE PLAZA. THE VIEW. THE WHOLE THING.

There are apartments with views, and then there are apartments where the view is practically part of the architecture.

Welcome to 5H at One Prospect Park West, a remarkably spacious three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence where Prospect Park and the magnificent Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch at Grand Army Plaza appear from every single window. This is the first resale of this special home, making it an especially rare opportunity to own at one of Park Slope’s most coveted addresses.

At approximately 1,832 square feet, 5H has the scale to actually live beautifully. The layout is generous, gracious and wonderfully flexible, with a proper entertaining space, a dedicated dining area, three real bedrooms and the kind of storage that makes city life feel just a little less like city life.

The great room is the heart of the home, framed by oversized windows and those extraordinary park and plaza views. A handsome kitchen with custom cabinetry, a generous island, premium appliances and an adjacent dining area with a dry bar and wine refrigerator makes entertaining feel effortless, whether it’s dinner for twelve or takeout for two.

The bedroom wing is tucked away from the entertaining spaces, creating a lovely sense of separation. The primary suite has generous closets and a beautifully appointed bath with natural stone, a freestanding soaking tub, Waterworks fixtures and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms and a beautifully finished second bath round out the private quarters, while a discreet powder room is perfectly positioned for guests.

And then there is One Prospect Park West.

Originally built in 1931 and thoughtfully transformed into a collection of residences that marry the grandeur of its historic architecture with a decidedly modern point of view, the building was conceived with interiors by acclaimed Brooklyn and Hudson Valley design studio Workstead and landscape design by ODA New York.

The amenities are wonderfully overachieving without feeling flashy: a full-time attended lobby, library, children’s playroom, fitness studio, movement and yoga spaces, basketball court, sauna and steam room, bike storage, package room and private storage. And perhaps the pièce de résistance is the spectacular landscaped roof terrace, complete with an apple orchard, lounge areas, sun deck and outdoor kitchen, with sweeping views across Park Slope, Manhattan, Prospect Park and beyond.

But honestly, the greatest amenity may simply be the address.

Walk out the front door and you are at the gateway to Prospect Park. Walk a few blocks and you are in the heart of Park Slope, with its brownstone-lined streets, beloved restaurants, neighborhood shops, cafés, schools and that particular Brooklyn rhythm that makes people fall hard for this part of town. On Saturdays, the Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket is right around the corner, and the 2/3 and B/Q trains make getting almost anywhere in the city surprisingly easy.

5H is not simply a three-bedroom apartment at One Prospect Park West. It is a front-row seat to one of Brooklyn’s great daily spectacles.

The trees. The park. The Arch. The changing light. The seasons.

And from every window, a little reminder of why you live in Brooklyn in the first place.
