Set a moment's walk from Grand Army Plaza on a leafy Prospect Heights block, this elegant and beautifully renovated two-bedroom home awaits you. Located in a classic pre-war elevator building, this peaceful oasis feels like it has its own exclusive entrance set right off the lobby.

Your open and large living space has new and gorgeous 4-inch white oak floors and plenty of room for both living and dining. Two large windows have views of lush trees and greenery.

The jewel of the apartment is the enormous architecturally designed cook's kitchen that has been tastefully renovated to include beautiful quartz countertops, abundant custom storage space both up and down, and high-end appliances including a Bosch gas range and dishwasher, a KitchenAid refrigerator, Broan hood, and GE microwave. A large breakfast bar compliments the space and is the perfect place to relax and sip your morning brew.

The two bedrooms are both huge and offer plenty of space for a home office and Peloton. The master bedroom holds a king sized bed and features a custom luxurious walk-in closet. The renovated bathroom has Grohe fixtures and conveniently includes a brand new Whirlpool washer/dryer.

Built in 1924 and chock full of pre-war charm, 408 Saint John's Place is a pet friendly, 35-unit, elevator co-op building with a fitness area, bike storage, and super. Additional large storage lockers are available for rent in the basement with a short waitlist. A new video intercom conveniently connects to your phone, and upgraded electric panel and meters as well as solar panels added in 2020 offset the building's monthly costs, all keeping the monthly maintenance low.

Enjoy an ideal location, set moments away from the nearby Farmers Market at GAP, Prospect Park, The Brooklyn Library, Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, Barclays Center and The Brooklyn Museum.
