This home is filled with pops of colour, plants of every shape and size, and the host’s own artwork. It might not be a look that suits everyone, but you can count on character and homely touches here. We love the vintage and recycled furniture, which sit comfortably amongst the bright textiles and bohemian accent pieces. On top of that, there’s a private roof terrace, equipped with a hammock and a pallet bench. This home is a haven in the middle of Brooklyn.

Local guide


About Prospect Heights

Even though Prospect Heights is steeped in old-Brooklyn culture, it's also on the cutting edge of all things trendy and appealing about the borough as a whole. Lots of great restaurants, majestic Prospect Park, brownstone homes galore, and quick train access to Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn keep the scene in this neighbourhood ever-changing – and ever-energised. One of Prospect Heights’ biggest draws lies in its sense of community though - diverse communities have started and run businesses, congregated along the same blocks, and frequented the same shops for generations.
