House of the Day: 49 Rutland Road

This place sure is purdy. According to the listing, the four-story brick and limestone house at 49 Rutland Road in Prospect Lefferts Gardens is one of five houses in a row designed by the architect John J. Petit in 1897. The interior of the 3,500-square-foot house is full of original details—pier mirrors, wood mantels, and ribbon pattern parquet floors—but has obviously had some modern updating in the right places. All good. And what about the asking price of $1,450,000? Think it’ll fly? There’s a pair of open houses this weekend for the curious.
