128 Midwood Street

Welcome to Prospect Lefferts Garden's 128 Midwood Street. This 20.5 x 45 on a 20.5 x 100ft lot is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath, 3-story barrel front home. On a beautiful tree lined block the potential of restoring and beautifying this home is endless. This home was built in 1910 and still has most of its original details. You are afforded two fire place/mantels and a bay style extension to the back of the parlor level. The home has almost floor to ceiling windows so there is an abundance of natural light. This home has lots of original details. From tin ceilings, wooden panel chair-rails, crown moldings/trimmings, intricately designed hardwood floors, hand carved banisters, which all screams turn of the century authenticity.

Starting with the parlor level as you enter the foyer you are greeted with 10.2" ceilings and an original wood trimmed vanity mirror which adds to the homes wow factor. To enter the parlor room there are twin extra-large functional pocket doors. There is the 1st of two-mantels on this level in the living room, a huge bedroom, kitchen, and a full bath. The natural flow of this home is simple, with a combination of the parlor and the first floor where you will find the large eat-in kitchen, another living room and or formal dining room, as well you have the 3rd bedroom. What's nice about these homes is the flexibility of the room configuration. From this floor there is access to the backyard that is partially concrete and the rest dirt for growing vegetable and flowers. With a full dry basement below you have plenty of storage space which in the past was used as a workshop.

On the 3rd level with 9" ceilings, there is no drop off where ceiling height is concerned, the space still feels open and grand. This level can easily be converted to a separate 2 bedroom unit, furnished with a large full bath, kitchen and living room, also containing the 2nd of two decorative mantels.

The surroundings include Prospect Park, LeFrack Center at Lakeside, Prospect Zoo, Park Carousel, Boathouse and Pavilion plus numerous shops, cafes and restaurants. Easy access to the express 2/5/B/Q & S trains.
