Description
221 Prospect Place — A Beautifully Updated Two-Family Modern Townhome in Prime Prospect Heights Perfectly positioned on one of historic Prospect Heights’ most desirable tree-lined blocks, 221 Prospect Place is a thoughtfully updated, well-designed, and charming two-family modern townhouse. The owner’s triplex offers four bedrooms, a windowed home office, two full and two half bathrooms, and a fantastic upper-level recreation space with two skylights. The parlor floor features an updated kitchen with a generous center island and a long wall of custom zebrawood cabinetry providing abundant storage. A south-facing, windowed dining area fills the home with natural light and warmth. This level also includes a powder room and a spacious home office/library with custom built-ins and two windows overlooking the home’s quaint private bluestone garden. The expansive living room spans the full width of the home, boasting three south-facing windows and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The primary suite comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed and features a beautifully updated en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed spa/steam shower, and a large custom walk-in closet. The top floor offers three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a versatile recreation space. The flexible two-family configuration allows for use as an owner’s triplex with an income-producing one-bedroom garden apartment with a dishwasher, washer/dryer and chef’s stove or as a spacious single-family residence. The garden apartment will be delivered vacant. The house has been completely rebuilt with all new steel floor joists, aluminum staircase railings, radiant floor heating throughout all 4 floors, central AC, and a stone wall in the parlor floor leading up to the fireplace mantel in the living room and extends to the top floor under the large skylight. Located just moments from Prospect Park, Vanderbilt Avenue, and the neighborhood’s beloved cafés, restaurants, and boutiques, 221 Prospect Place captures the essence of Brooklyn living—style, space, and an unbeatable location in one of the borough’s most vibrant communities.
