Located on a lovely tree-lined block amid brownstones, this sunny 1 bedroom apartment in a pre-war building is just a few minutes' stroll from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens and Brooklyn Museum. Get the true Brooklyn vibe in this hip and historic neighborhood known as Prospect Park Lefferts Gardens. A vibrant neighborhood typical of the amazing diversity that Brooklyn has to offer - with restaurants, bars and an array of markets and stores - you will find everything you need in the immediate area. The Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, one of New York City's hidden gems, are just a short walk from the apartment, as is the Brooklyn Museum with it's top notch art collection and temporary exhibits. Prospect Park offers great summer concerts and is a beautiful destination, especially the new Lakeside area (featuring a state of the art skating area and water park), the Boathouse, Carousel and Zoo. Take a stroll through the park to reach Park Slope, Grand Army Plaza and the beautiful Brooklyn Library. The arena at Barclay's Center is just 2 subway stops from the apartment, and features world-renowned artists in concert as well as major sporting events. The subway provides quick and easy access to Manhattan and other parts of Brooklyn (Parkside or Prospect Park stops of the B/Q/S trains, Winthrop stop of the 2/5 trains), with a direct line to famous Coney Island. The Barclay's Center concert venue and arena is also just a couple of subway stops from the apartment, featuring world-renowned artists in concert as well as a variety of sports events. Street parking is available, and there is also a parking garage 1 block away.
With large windows in each room, including the bathroom, the apartment is very bright and cheerful – a peaceful retreat from the bustle of big City life. This apartment is newly furnished, freshly painted and is equipped with everything you could need to feel at home. It has beautiful hard-wood floors throughout and provides all the amenities (flat-screen tv, cable, wifi). The apartment comfortably accommodates 4 people, with a queen size bed in the bedroom and a full-size pull-out sofa bed in the living room. Whip up a home-cooked meal in the fully-stocked kitchen (oven, range, microwave, coffee maker, toaster oven, pots, pans, plates, etc) and enjoy it at the ample dining table. Note that the apartment is located on the 4th and top floor of a walk-up building (no elevator). Bedding, linens and towels are provided. English, Spanish, German, Slovene and some French are spoken. All inquiries are welcome!

Very well designed, happy, quiet and sunny apartment, so close to the park. We stayed for almost a week and I loved how easy and quick it was to contact the owner about my questions and how clean the apartment was. What a great way to visit Manhattan and other nearby areas. Saved a fortune!

About the neighbourhood
The neighborhood had its origins when in 1893, James Lefferts divided his farm into 600 residential lots, to be called Lefferts Manor. A rectangle of roughly half a square mile skirting the southeastern edge of Prospect Park, the Prospect-Lefferts Gardens neighborhood is known for its well-preserved late 19th- and early 20th-century architecture, a low-rise mix that includes Romanesque Revival, neo-Georgian and neo-Tudor styles. Along with the beautiful architecture, there is a lot of commerce and little cafes and restaurants along Flatbush Avenue. It’s a very lively and diverse neighborhood.
