A rare opportunity to live on the best block in Brooklyns most exciting and up and coming historic neighborhood, Prospect Lefferts Manor; a unique Landmarked enclave consisting of a limited number of architecturally significant one-family homes. Located just close to Prospect Park, express subway lines, and a booming Flatbush avenue replete with great shopping, dining and amenities in every direction. This is an opportunity to live large and comfortably on one of the most stately blocks in the borough, against a backdrop of stunning historic details and private green space. 80 Rutland stands proud at four full stories, plus a finished cellar, in the middle of the block and offers a formal dining room and eat-in kitchen on the ground floor, a triple parlor on the 2nd floor, and five spacious and light-filled bedrooms on the upper top two floors. The icing on the cake is a fully finished cellar that can be the perfect guest or nanny suite. A striking barrel front limestone with an elegant stoop, large south-facing garden, and bay windows on all floors, this is a trophy forever home that can be moved into as-is, or update at your leisure if you want more bells and whistles. Original details abound on every floor and create an irreplaceable framework for whatever your style of living, whether it be lofty and modern or traditional and grand. Enjoy a dramatic parlor floor with hand troweled plaster walls, high coffered-ceilings, inlaid wood floors, and a stunning marble arts and crafts style fireplace as its centerpiece. A grand hand-carved staircase, original wainscoting, skylights, window and picture moldings throughout complete the package for every history buff looking for a showcase home. Enjoy a claw-foot tub set amidst the original subway and penny tile, and a shower complete with glass and copper door. Three full baths and two half baths complete the picture. The garden level offers a unique flavor of its own with a professional chefs kitchen with the original dumbwaiter still intact, a true formal dining room, and an additional extension that offers a sunny breakfast nook with the perfect flow to your large backyard. Enjoy amazing light on all floors all day. This is a property that has been beautifully maintained by its owner and revered by guests for years as the famed Lefferts Manor Bed and Breakfast. Now is your opportunity to enjoy every square inch of it as your own.
