Windsor Terrace Two-Bedroom Near Park Asks $1.15 Million

"For lovers of Prospect Park, this Windsor Terrace co-op has some tree-filled views and is located across the street from the iconic park. The pale brick six-story, 58-unit building was competed by 1962 and an early brochure boasted of "sumptuous living" with "outstanding appointments." Architectural firm Lama, Proskauer, Prober was behind the design and the building was dubbed the Lakeview Apartments."

"This unit retains its original layout as seen in the brochure and is a true two-bedroom rather than the result of a later reno to carve out more sleeping space. There is a foyer large enough to serve as a dining room, a spacious living room, a kitchen with a dining nook, and the two bedrooms. One bathroom, with a shower, is en suite to the largest bedroom. Both bathrooms have some mid-century tile, one with blue and the other gray."

"The living room has a view across Prospect Park Southwest and into the park as well as a door to the unit's terrace. As noted, the foyer is large enough for a dining setup, as seen in the listing photos, but there is also a dining nook off the kitchen. The kitchen has some '70s flair with tile countertop and backsplash with bas-relief accents and tile-like brown floral linoleum. The windowed space includes wood cabinets and a dishwasher."

The two-bedroom apartment sits on the second floor of 185 Prospect Park Southwest, a six-story, 58-unit pale brick building completed by 1962. The building's original brochure touted amenities such as free air conditioning, spacious closets, Formica kitchen tabletops, and dishwashers in larger units. The apartment retains its original layout with a foyer large enough for dining, a spacious living room, a kitchen with a dining nook, two bedrooms, and an en suite bathroom for the largest bedroom. Both bathrooms have mid-century tile. Neutral finishes and wood floors appear throughout. The living room opens to a private terrace with park views. The kitchen has '70s flair with tile countertops, bas-relief accents, wood cabinets, and a dishwasher.
