Co-op of the Day: 16 Prospect Park SW, #61

It’s a bit of a haul to get from the master bedroom to the one bathroom, but otherwise this two-bedroom co-op at 16 Prospect Park SW in Windsor Terrace is looking pretty nice to us. The prewar pad was just recently renovated and is on the top floor. And, at $643, the monthly maintenance is quite manageable. As for the asking price of $475,000, we suspect they’ll be able to get within 5 percent of it. Do you?

I’m actually a little shocked… it’s out of my price-range, but it doesn’t strike me as crazy. Almost, like, ya know… a regular couple with regular jobs could afford this.
I would call it a 1+ bedroom… I mean, buying is supposed to be for a home, right? Not a roommate share with a single common space. The second “bedroom” is a perfect guestroom/office/den/etc.
Also, this appears to be the *next* building own PPSW… so it’s not the one everyone hang out in waiting for the bus. That’s a good thing, especially on rainy days.
Too bad it’s a ‘southwestern exposure’ (meaning the back / non-park side) of the building… but that means it’s probably nice and bright.
I like the mini-hallway idea, or something that would keep the second bedroom from being boxed in by other rooms. And a closet for the first bedroom is needed, too. Aside from the off-putting layout and that it’s a 4th-floor walkup, it looks like a nicely cared-for apartment. It’s pretty much down the block from the F and a pretty nice area all-around.
I’ve never seen a teens apartment like this that wasn’t a walkup. They should specify.
Marginally less delusional than the Gates Ave apt yesterday but wasn’t this originally a one bed where they’ve converted the dining room to make it into a 2nd bedroom? It would certainly be much more comfortable if lived in as a one bed.
Missed an opportunity to partially open the kitchen. That would make it feel more spacious.
I don’t want my bedroom off LR like that (kids up at 5:30 watching cartoons, me killing myself in bedroom). You could easily reconfigure this place and make it 100% better: add little hall off LR thru closet with doors to the two bedrooms. Close off doors to bedrooms from LR and kitchen. Add a table in kitchen.
Anyway, looks like a decent price. Don’t know that area at all anymore.
Another 700sf “2-bedroom” apartment. At least the price isn’t as nuts. The listing says top floor, but doesn’t mention an elevator, so maybe there’s a reason why the price appears more reasonable.
I don’t agree M4L. I think this location is superior. Close to park and less crime. Gates isn’t exactly the safest block around.
Why can’t they spell Olmsted correctly?! How can we judge if there are no pictures of the views?
