17 Prospect Park West

Here is an opportunity to own one of the all time great houses of New York built at the turn-of-the-last-century. Located on a corner lot directly across from Prospect Park, sunlight fills the grandly proportioned rooms of this four story single family townhouse all day long through the oversized windows. All of the original wood carving surrounding the windows and mantles as well as the elaborate plaster work on the ceilings remains intact and in perfect condition. There are fireplaces in all of the public rooms (living, dining and kitchen) as well as in three of the four master bedrooms. There is a full servant's quarters on the top floor consisting of four small bedrooms, a full bath and a large storage room. The original stained and leaded glass windows exist in the baths and in the large skylight at the top of the grand staircase. Central air conditioning has been added and there is a large, fully landscaped garden at the rear of the house which is gated and private. This property is simply outstanding in every way.
