HD 201585 is a star located in the equatorial constellation Equuleus. It has an apparent magnitude of 8.23,[2] making it readily visible in small telescopes but not to the naked eye. Gaia DR3 parallax measurements imply a distance of 594 light-years and it is currently receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 14 km/s.[6] At its current distance, HD 201585's brightness is diminished by three-tenths of a magnitudes due to interstellar extinction[10] and it has an absolute magnitude of +1.81.[4] HD 201585 is the star's Henry Draper Catalogue designation. It is also designated as MASCARA-1 meaning that it is the first star observed by the MASCARA exoplanet search program.

HD 201585 has a stellar classification of A3,[3] indicating that it is an A-type star. However, later observations of the star's physical properties revealed a cooler class of A8. It has 1.9 times the mass of the Sun and 2.1 times the radius of the Sun.[5] It radiates 12 times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 7,490 K, giving it the typical white hue of an A-type star. HD 201585 either has a solar metallicity or an iron abundance of [Fe/H] = +0.15,[5] depending on the source. Unfortunately, the latter value is poorly constrained. The star is estimated to be approximately 800 million years old and like most hot stars, it spins rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 109 km/s.
