“Palatial” is the word that springs to mind to describe this Prospect Heights apartment — both in size and decor, which is rich in Louis-style furniture arrayed at the edges of rooms as if in preparation for a ball. The five-bedroom, three-bathroom unit is located on the fourth floor of what is perhaps Brooklyn’s grandest prewar co-op, Turner Towers at 135 Eastern Parkway.

It has all the prewar bells and whistles one would expect, including a grand suite of rooms for entertaining with a view of the Brooklyn Museum, gallery, beamed ceilings, herringbone floors, butler’s pantry, maid’s room/office and service entrance. The bathrooms are classic black and white; the kitchen, while not the latest style, appears in good condition and amenable to an easy refresh. There are also 11 closets and in-unit laundry.

Of course, all this finery does not come cheap. The monthly maintenance is $3,091 and the ask is $2.495 million. Tracey McLean of Corcoran has the listing. Worth it?
