Prospect Lefferts Gardens and Boerum Hill are both holding their annual home and gardens tour this weekend. A few of the spaces featured on the Prospect Lefferts Gardens tour include: A brother and sister team’s conversion of an apartment in a 1900s Victorian two-family house from a one-bedroom to an “ingenious duplex” decorated by “startling artwork.” The complete remake of a 1921 brick home that was heavily damaged by fire and smoke and left uninhabited for five years. An aspiring designer’s complete makeover, of a one-bedroom rental making us of all 550 square feet, in a 1925 building facing the park. An “in progress’ 1909 limestone home that showcases an array of artifacts, eclectic furnishings and artwork, some of it by the owner. Refreshments and music await at the end of the tour in a rose garden and basement “speakeasy” that plays hommage to 1950s kitsch. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 on tour day, and can be purchased online or at K-Dog & Dunebuggy, 43 Lincoln Road. The tour is on Sunday from noon until 5 p.m. We recieved less information on the homes featured in the Boerum Hill tour, also on Sunday from 1 until 5 p.m. The tour features eight homes, one newly opened lounge and one restored retail space. Ticket holders are entitled to special food and drink offers at local establishments, and admission to the post-tour reception at the Mugavero Center, which features a silent auction and free food and drinks. Tickets are the same price and can be purchased online, at 493 Atlantic Avenue (Gumbo) or 363 Atlantic Avenue. Between these tours and the flea market (free to get in), there’s no excuse to spend Sunday inside!
