Closing Bell: Tour Victorian Flatbush's Japanese House

Cool news from Ditmas Park Blog: 131 Buckingham Road, the well-known Japanese-style home in Victorian Flatbush, will be open for a tour later this month. According to a BOTD post we ran on it, the “house is a large stucco covered box with Japanese brackets, bargeboards and an upturned roof. Chrysanthemums decorate the facade, and today the house is quite striking in the colors chosen to highlight the Japanese details, although period postcards show a more subdued use of color. The interior carried the Japanese theme further, with hand painted Japanese designs and carvings on the fireplaces and ceilings. The dining room had leaded glass windows with a dragon design.” The house has been in the same family since the early 1970s. The tour is scheduled for November 20th. More details at DPB.
