$625K Prospect Heights apartment with its own roof access is lovely as can be

May 20, 2017

This charming pad comes from the top floor of 786 Washington Avenue, a 16-unit prewar co-op in Prospect Heights. Interior details include 11-foot ceilings, exposed brick, and hardwood flooring throughout. But the real perk is exclusive rights to the portion of the roof directly above the apartment, which is currently outfitted with a deck and custom bench seating. This appealing combo of indoor and outdoor space, plus the nice Brooklyn location, is on the market for $625,000.

A living room nook, lined with large windows, has enough space for a small dining room table. Shelving and cabinetry provides extra storage space.

The recently renovated kitchen boasts a dishwasher, butcher block counters and vented exhaust hood.

Being on the top floor has some perks: a skylight in the bedroom lights up the room, while the white washed brick warms the space. The ladder leads up to extra storage situated in a large crawl space above the bathroom.

The private roof deck spans the entire length of the apartment… enough room for multiple seating areas, gardening and barbecuing. Below, landmarks like the Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Museum, Grand Army Plaza and Prospect park are just a few blocks away. The location, interior details, and roof deck make a winning combination… just be sure to check out a few more interior shots within the gallery below.

Prospect Heights brownstone with an Elizabeth Roberts renovation and terraced garden asks $4.5M

By Michelle Cohen

Located in the heart of historic Prospect Heights, 275 Park Place is the kind of four-story, two-family brownstone designers' dreams are made of. Consisting of an upper triplex and a garden-level one-bedroom apartment, the pristine late-19th-century home is beyond turn-key. With a renovation–it was featured in New York magazine–helmed by noted architect Elizabeth Roberts, every bit of infrastructure was replaced, while retaining its stunning original details. Asking $4,500,000, the property also boasts the unique extra-long lot only found in a few Brooklyn neighborhoods, giving it a 90-foot back garden with two terraces above.
