Enter the apartment in the main entrance hall that leads to your bedroom and the kitchen.

The kitchen and dining area, to the right is shared with the roommate of the apartment and is fully equipped to prepare meals at home.

Outside the two bedroom apartment, find yourself in the Windsor Terrace neighborhood, a primarily residential section of Brooklyn known for its proximity to Prospect Park and ease of access to downtown Manhattan. At just 7 short blocks away, Prospect Park is a great place to head to enjoy the outdoors. With various playing fields, running paths and places where outdoor concerts are held, the park is also known as the home to the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens.
To the west of the apartment is the Green-Wood Cemetery, a National Historic Landmark thanks to its incredible architecture and natural setting. Enter the park-like cemetery through the Gothic Revival gateways to wander the rows of mausoleums and other statues built to honor war heroes and other tragedy victims. In one section of the cemetery you can even find the family plot of Theodore Roosevelt.
If you are looking to enjoy some fresh and local food, look no further than The Farm on Adderley, a restaurant and community garden in Flatbush, that specializes in preparing meals based on what they can get from local farmers and other artisans. On a nice day enjoy brunch or cocktails in their garden seating area.
To get to travel through the rest of Brooklyn and reach the other boroughs of New York City, the closest subway is at the Fort Hamilton Parkway / Prospect Avenue Station with service on the F and G trains, which in 9 stops brings you to downtown Manhattan, or will take you to trendy neighborhoods like Park Slope and Williamsburg.
