This extraordinary home is filled with natural light throughout the day, with oversized windows and high ceilings enhancing both scale and impact. From nearly every room, the views take over. Beyond the tree-lined streets of Brooklyn, the Downtown skyline gives way to a full, unobstructed panorama of Manhattan, where the city’s most iconic landmarks come into focus. It’s a rare vantage point that fills the home with a constant sense of energy and depth.
The layout is expansive yet intuitive, with a seamless flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces that keeps those views front and center whether you’re entertaining or just going about your day. At the center, the luxurious chef's kitchen is both striking and highly functional. Rich walnut cabinetry, Pietra del Cardosa stone countertops, and a generous island are paired with a full suite of integrated Thermador appliances. Dornbracht fixtures and thoughtful storage solutions round out a space that feels considered at every turn.
The primary suite is positioned for privacy while still capturing the same open outlook, offering a calm, refined retreat. Its en suite bath leans spa-like, with radiant heated floors, a floating double vanity finished in Bianco Bella marble, and clean, modern detailing throughout. Perfectly positioned on the other side of the home, the additional bedrooms are well proportioned, with excellent light, ample storage, and those same sweeping views extending toward the park and museum.
Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout the residence, an in-unit washer/dryer offers a wonderful convenience, and a deeded storage unit is included.
856 Washington offers a full suite of amenities designed to complement the home without overwhelming it. The attended lobby from 12 PM - 8PM daily makes a strong first impression, while the library, resident lounge, and landscaped roof deck provide a range of spaces to relax or gather. A fitness center, yoga room, bike storage, and children’s playroom round out the offering.
Set at the crossroads of Prospect Heights and Park Slope, the location places you moments from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Botanic Garden, along with standout dining including Ogliastro, Faun, Sofreh, and Tom’s Restaurant. A new grocery store is opening imminently directly across the street. Access to the 2, 3, 4, 5, B, Q, and C subway lines puts the rest of the city within easy reach, making this a complete Brooklyn lifestyle offering.
