Prime Prospect Lefferts Gardens Single Family Home Welcome to 18 Rutland Road! This stunning, rarely-available single-family townhouse is nestled in the heart of the Prospect Lefferts Gardens Historic District just four blocks from verdant Prospect Park and the Prospect Park station. A three-story Tudor Revival house with a finished basement, 18 Rutland Road has a landscaped facade, a private, fenced backyard and a delightful 225 sq. ft. deck off the second floor. When the weather is fine, you can read or sun on your deck, or enjoy a mixture of sun and shade in the peaceful backyard which features a bluestone patio, magnolia tree, planting beds and room for a grill and al fresco dining. Set on a 100’ x 17’ lot, this house has almost 3,000 square feet of living space that has been preserved, maintained and updated over the years. It is ready for its next chapter. Original architectural details throughout the home reflect its turn-of-the-century provenance: A woodburning fireplace centers the living room, from which the wood-paneled formal dining room can be glimpsed through beveled-glass and oak pocket doors. The dining room features hardwood floors, rich wood moldings, a coffered ceiling, and leaded-glass upper windows. Continue through the butler’s pantry area to the windowed, well-equipped kitchen, with stainless steel appliances, and a beautiful new quartzite counter. Sunlight pours in through oversized south and west-facing windows, warming the space. The second floor holds two large bedrooms (one with access to the outside deck) and a large, fully-renovated bathroom with a bathtub shower. The third floor features a large bedroom and a smaller bedroom, along with a fully-renovated bathroom with walk-in shower. Two skylights, one in the bathroom and another over the stairs, brighten the space. The newly renovated English basement includes a home office, laundry area, half-bathroom, gardening area with sink, mechanical room with brand-new boiler, family room, and a stunning amount of custom-built storage. Five floor-to-ceiling closets extend the length of a long hallway opposite a large, walk-in closet which provides still more storage. Best of all, the house features many significant and important upgrades. Electrical and plumbing systems have been upgraded, the front façade was just restored, and the rear wall waterproofed. Thirteen of the home’s 21 windows are new. With its prime location on a quiet tree-lined street, you can enjoy Prospect Park and all that it offers along with the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Garden. There are many transportation choices including multiple subway lines, buses, and Citibike Stations. And the neighborhood also offers a diverse selection of shops, restaurants and cafes.
