An absolute showstopper of a 1br Co-op, on one of Brooklyn’s most coveted blocks, just a few steps from the bucolic oasis that is Prospect Park. Fiske Place is an even shorter walk to Methodist Hospital with all the shopping, nightlife and convenience that Park Slope has to offer, just outside the front door.

The solid wood millwork in this unit is nothing short of incredible. Original hardwood floors throughout the unit, contoured base moulding and trim are topped by ELEVEN layers of flawless crown moulding. Immediately upon entering, the millwork, an arched entry from the suede-wall-papered foyer and french doors to the bedroom combine to create the air of stately timelessness that posh Brooklyn residences are famous for.
The all high-end Kholer bathroom is bright, stunning and kept extra comfortable with heated floors. A fully enclosed shower is clad in glass metallic foil tile and is surrounded by top of the line finishes. Lyric Artisan Arabesque Porcelain Mosaic Tiles, laid one by one are accented beautifully by the Flight of Fancy Gold Caxton sink. All the hard-surfaces here; vanity top, bench and window sill are finished in silestone. Truly no expense was spared in this bath.
On to the kitchen, which is wrapped in reclaimed wood from a WW2 shipping chest. The appliances package here is rather opulent to put it mildly, with a CAFE Double Oven & Griddle, a CAFE Smart Microwave, Fisher & Paykel Drawer Dishwasher and Liebherr Refrigerator with Ice Maker. Our countertop is a wide expanse of Rain Forest Granite, a beautiful Kholer enameled cast iron sink sits at the center and a retractable shelf to scuttle away the full size Kitchen-Aid Mixer just beside it. One would be hard pressed to find a more luxurious space in which to bake their next cranberry walnut bread.
Climb the stairs to find the common roof deck, shaded by a pergola, its own birch tree and lined with gorgeous planter boxes full of seasonal flowers. Built with tropical hardwood, the deck boasts its own automatic irrigation system keeping the flora healthy all season. The community of succulents occupying the tabletop is the perfect finishing touch. All this kept in pristine condition by the association but available for your use at any time! The views of Downtown Brooklyn, Brooklyn Harbor and the Manhattan skyline are second to none. Get ready for 4 different fireworks shows every 4th of July!
Add to it all, the cool, open, common rear yard; certainly a pied-a-terre that will keep your friends and family gawking. Rock solid financials, a very healthy reserve fund and a co-op association that cares deeply for it’s property.
Pet friendly, very cheap storage lockers, common laundry and the ability to install W/D in the unit with board approval.
