1 Prospect Park W #8C

Welcome to Residence 8C, a stunning three-bedroom and two-and-a-half bathroom home, bathed in southeastern light from its prized location across from bucolic Prospect Park. This residence masterfully blends the grandeur of 1920s architecture with pre-war minimalism, preserving exquisite original details throughout. As you step into the entry gallery you are engulfed by the hand-laid reclaimed heart pinewood flooring—arranged in a Frank Stella-inspired pattern—sets the tone for the home’s refined aesthetic. Just beyond, the powder room exudes sophistication with classic wainscoting, custom Workstead lighting, a beveled-edged mirror, and a Calacatta Nero marble-topped washstand with chrome Waterworks fixtures. The kitchen is a showpiece of understated luxury, featuring honed Estremoz marble countertops and backsplash, a sculptural Dornbracht chrome faucet over a cast-iron undermount sink, and a fully integrated Wolf and Sub-Zero appliance package. Custom paneled cabinetry by Workstead echoes the home's deco-inspired details, while dramatic windows frame picturesque views of Prospect Park. Open archway partitions gracefully separate the kitchen, dining, and living spaces, enhancing the home's airy, seamless flow. These elegant gathering areas are further enriched with custom-designed trim and wall moldings, celebrating the building’s storied heritage. Custom built-in shelving in this space is the perfect touch. The breathtaking views extend over Prospect Park and beyond, offering a stunning panorama. The home features custom automated blinds, letting you adjust the lighting and atmosphere to suit your preference. A sanctuary of comfort, the primary bedroom suite features oversized custom windows, a spacious walk-in closet, and intricate wall moldings. The ensuite bathroom is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, showcasing Novelda Cream limestone walls and floors, classic chrome Waterworks fixtures, and a Bianco Dolomite marble-tiled shower enclosed by powder-coated steel and pyramid-glass doors.
