Description

...who's the fairest of them all? Or is it the rarest? This home could be both.

Nestled on One Prospect Park West's top floor with ceilings soaring over 10', PHC is a masterclass in timeless elegance bolstered by modern luxuries. Designed by Workstead, no detail or moment was overlooked in this sumptuous three bed, two and a half bath condo that features oversized picture windows that all over look Prospect Park, the natural heart of Brooklyn.

Walking into this rambling apartment you are greeted by two entry closets, an over-sized kitchen and a postcard view through two arched doors to the main living and dining room with treetops swaying in the distance. The open but separate kitchen provides an excellent chef's quarters with yards of Estremoz marble countertops, a six burner gas Wolf range with vented exhaust hood and a cast-iron island sink with Dornbracht chrome fixtures. The copious custom cabinetry mirrors the pre-war aesthetic and hides bespoke storage solutions designed by the owner. . Rounding out this culinary powerhouse is a 42" side by side SubZero fridge and Miele Dishwasher.

Through the arched doorways is the centerpiece of the home with distinctive areas for dining on one side and a living room anchored by a custom walnut built-in with large lower storage (designed as integrated dog crates). Enjoy your morning coffee while the sun rises over the treetops of Prospect Park or take in the Beaux-Arts architecture of Grand Army Plaza.

In one wing of the apartment is the large primary suite with another stunning view of the park. This spacious suite fits a king bed and furniture set, an outfitted walk-in closet and spa-like primary bath. This ensuite bath boasts a double vanity with Calacatta Marble, Duravit sinks and dual vanities and radiant heat in the floor. There are frosted fluted glass doors for the water closet and standup shower where you'll find a full set of chrome Waterworks fixtures.

Back towards the other side of the apartment and past the great room is a powder room with a marble vanity, wainscotting and classic molding. Further down the hall past the LG Washer/Dryer room and an additional large closet is the 2nd full bath with a fluted vanity topped with marble and a tub with more Waterworks fixtures. Adjacent are the two other bedrooms - the end room with a nice alcove for a bed and views of the entrance to Prospect Park across to PLG. The third bedroom also has an incredible view and could also be purposed as an office or den. Both rooms have custom closets and ceilings over 10'.
