149 Maple Street

Nestled on one of Lefferts Manor historic district’s most idyllic streets, this grand limestone single-family home has been lovingly cared for and awaits your modern touch. Designed at the turn of the 20th Century by Axel Hedman, this Renaissance Revival home hosts original details such as oak floors, french doors, and original fireplaces.
From the tiled entrance foyer, enter through an original French door into the wide parlor floor. An elegant wood-burning fireplace is the centerpiece of the room, ideal for cozying up to with a book, or a glass of wine on those chilly nights. High ceilings and bay windows allow light to stream throughout.
A full separate dining room with delicate lead-paned windows and another original fireplace easily seats the entire family. Through the dining room is the oversized, eat-in kitchen, with a large center island and pantry closets. Overlooking your private garden, this kitchen is the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day.
Downstairs, the finished basement has an oversized, full bathroom, complete with a jacuzzi tub and a sauna! Plenty of room for storage, a home gym, art studio, or recreation area. A separate entrance allows for a convenient mother-in-law suite or guest bedroom, as well.
From the basement, enter onto the quiet haven that is your blue stone-tiled patio and landscaped garden.
Up the grand wooden staircase are three large bedrooms with excellent closet space, including walk-in closets, and two tiled bathrooms. The back bedroom has two original bay windows, overlooking the garden and allowing light to shine through. The master bedroom overlooks lovely Maple Street and receives abundant southern light.
The Prospect Park express B, Q, and S station is a few blocks away, and makes for an easy commute into Manhattan. Enjoy the beauty of Prospect Park and explore the LeFrak Center and the Lake, and Smorgasburg on Sundays at Breeze Hill. The neighborhood hosts wonderful restaurants of Flatbush Ave and Rogers Ave such as Risbo, Cinnamon Girl, Pels Pie Co, Blue Sky Bakery The Food Sermon, Oaxaca and more. Don’t miss this gem!
