Elegant & Expansive Two Family on coveted Prospect Place, Crown Heights North Historic District

Welcome to 866 Prospect Place, a landmarked 6,000-square-foot Renaissance Revival limestone built in 1897 by legendary architect George P. Chappell. Situated on an expansive 125-foot-deep lot on arguably the neighborhood's most coveted bucolic blocks, this stately four-story, two-family residence offers an ideal configuration: a grand 4-bedroom owner's triplex over an income-generating expansive 3-bedroom garden-level apartment.

The exterior showcases a striking limestone facade detailed with polygonal bay windows, arched parlor transoms, and intricate floral relief carvings.

Inside, the airy, sunny Parlor Floor opens to a sweeping flared staircase, soaring ceiling height, and a sun-drenched living room featuring windows that are rare, extraordinary and beautiful. The rear of the Parlor Floor features a contemporary light-filled eat-in kitchen that flows seamlessly onto a private morning deck lush with foliage. A regal dining room with vaulted ceilings, pocket doors, brass hardware, and original cabinetry was built for entertaining and is perfectly maintained. Parquet flooring unifies the rooms with inlay bordering.

The upper floors prioritize space and functionality. The third floor offers two generous bedrooms with dedicated en-suite baths, offering the luxury of privacy. The entire fourth floor serves as a dedicated primary sanctuary, boasting a bright & airy bedroom with treetop views, a marble-and-brass bathroom, two bright skylights, and two versatile bonus rooms perfect for home offices.

The 1,500-square-foot garden rental provides a reliable three-bedroom, one-bathroom floor-through, replete with its own washer/dryer & dishwasher.

The house is set behind a manicured front garden of boxwood & heirloom roses and is situated on one of the prettiest leafy blocks in Brooklyn. The property features updated kitchens and baths, new appliances, the installation of a copper water main from lead (better for brain health!), new hot water heater and furnace systems.

866 Prospect Place is a true architectural masterpiece. It has many unique and extraordinarily beautiful features. It is bright, airy, has wonderful flow and magnanimous proportions.
