Property Description for 182 Rutland Road
Lovingly restored, beautifully renovated, but still retaining its rich, original details, this 20 foot wide, 1910 limestone townhouse sits on one of Historic Lefferts Manor's prettiest tree-lined streets. This sun-filled home is in perfect condition and has been featured on the high-end design websites Apartment Therapy and DesignSponge, as well as in several home design magazines, and on the annual Prospect Lefferts Garden House Tour of historic homes. At the parlor level, a gracious foyer leads to the living room with bay window and high ceilings. The formal dining room features handsome built-ins and a big bay window. It opens to the beautifully renovated kitchen with its high-end appliances, soapstone counters, and cherry cabinets. Up the skylit stairs are four comfortable bedrooms and a renovated bath. The lower level offers a spectacular studio/home-office/media room, the washer/dryer, a separate guest room or additional home office, and a full bath. The sunny south garden features a custom deck with ironwood trim, a beautifully designed brick patio, pretty plantings, and even a tree house! Set in the middle of a landmark block, the location is ideal. The proximity to Prospect Park and the convenient commute to Manhattan via the B/Q and 2/5 trains have made Prospect Lefferts a destination for homebuyers seeking convenience, comfort, and classic turn-of-the-century architecture.
