Welcome to 287 Park Place, a beautifully preserved Renaissance Revival brownstone located just off vibrant Vanderbilt Avenue, in the landmarked Prospect Heights Historic District. This quintessential Brooklyn home thoughtfully reimagined by a creative couple and featured in Elle Magazine offers a truly unique living experience, blending antique crown moldings, Victorian-era millwork, soaring ceilings, and original white oak details with smart modern updates and curated vintage designer furnishings.
Spread across three gracious floors, the owner's triplex includes 5 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The parlor level features an airy, sun-drenched living area that flows seamlessly into a modern kitchen. Just off the kitchen, a private deck leads to an expansive, lush backyard one of the deepest on the block, thanks to the rare 131-foot lot offering unmatched space and seclusion for relaxing or entertaining.
The second floor is home to a stunning, south-facing primary suite that spans the full width of the building, complete with original stained glass, built-ins, and flexible closet space. A rear bedroom and a full bath complete this floor. Upstairs, the top level offers three additional bedrooms, a second full bath, built-in library shelving, and a washer/dryer for ultimate convenience.
This boho-chic, haute-couture artist's retreat captures the spirit of Prospect Heights living at its best just steps from Prospect Park, Grand Army Plaza, the Brooklyn Museum, Botanic Gardens, Barclays Center, the Prospect Park Zoo, and the Greenmarket, with B/Q and 2/3/4/5 subway lines close by for easy access to the rest of Brooklyn and Manhattan.
