About 542 St Marks Ave Brooklyn, NY 11238

Light-filled, top-floor duplex in modern building in Crown Heights. Upstairs are the living room, bar area, and stainless steel galley kitchen. The kitchen opens up to a balcony. Floor-to-ceiling windows on both ends of the apartment mean gorgeous light and a good cross-breeze on warm days. Originally constructed as a condo building, there are high-end appliances throughout, including built-in heating and air conditioning units that you control, both upstairs and downstairs. Downstairs are the bedroom and bathroom. The bedroom is small but cozy and also features floor-to-ceiling windows. The entire building has a gorgeous modern design. We have lived here three years and have never heard a sound from the other apartments thanks to the poured concrete floors. Building has an elevator and is pet friendly. The apartment has a washer/dryer hookup and the management company will install units for a monthly fee. There is also laundry on the block. Building has a gym and a courtyard with patio chairs and a grill. There is a lower-level parking garage with available spaces for a fee. This is an incredibly well-maintained building with a live-in super who truly cares about the space. Great location in Crown Heights, on the corner of St. Marks and Franklin Avenue — near tons of great restaurants, yoga studio around the corner, and grocery store on the block. Easy access to the A/C and 2/3/4/5. Exactly one mile from Grand Army Plaza, for Prospect Park running or the weekend farmers’ market, and the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Public Library. You can even see the museum from the balcony.

542 St Marks Ave is an apartment community located in Kings County and the 11238 ZIP Code.

Neighborhood

With its tree-lined streets and welcoming community, Prospect Heights is a wonderful tight-knit community to come home to. The Grand Army Plaza at Mount Prospect Park is probably the first thing you’ll notice, especially the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Arch monument. The Saturday market is held at the plaza, which makes buying groceries all the more fun!

Across from the arch is the Brooklyn Public Library, one of the community’s iconic buildings. The Brooklyn Museum is close by on Eastern Parkway – the same thoroughfare that holds the West Indian Day Parade on Labor Day. The Botanic Garden is in walking distance of both attractions and features acres of cherry blossoms.

Vanderbilt and Washington Avenues act as the main commercial district, scattered with shops, restaurants, and bars. Locals enjoy the famous lemon ricotta pancakes at Tom’s Restaurant plus sweet treats at Ample Hills Creamery. Prospect Heights has a lot to do and see – like a Nets game at Barclays Center.
