About This Home
140 Prospect Place
Welcome to 140 Prospect Place - a rare offering on one of Prospect Heights' most coveted blocks, where it sits at the crossroads of Park Slope, Prospect Heights, and Fort Greene, putting the very best of brownstone Brooklyn within easy reach.
This classic turn-of-the-century townhouse measures approximately 20 feet wide by 50 feet deep, and has been owned and cherished by the same family for over 50 years - a true testament to the love and care this home has received. Inside, you'll find an extraordinary collection of original details rarely seen intact: ornate fireplace mantels grace multiple rooms, wide-plank pumpkin pine floors run throughout, and exquisite original inlaid wood floors showcase the craftsmanship of a bygone era. High ceilings, period moldings, and abundant natural light round out the home's timeless character.
Location doesn't get better than this. Step outside and you're moments from Barclays Center, with easy access to the 2, 3, 4, 5, B, Q, and R trains. Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Museum are just blocks away, and you're surrounded by some of Brooklyn's most celebrated dining and shopping - from the restaurants along Vanderbilt Avenue and Flatbush Avenue to the boutiques and cafés of Fort Greene and Park Slope.
This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to bring fresh vision to a home brimming with history and soul - ready for its next steward to restore its grandeur and make it their own.
