This one-bedroom at 135 Hawthorne Street in Prospect Lefferts Gardens is large and, at $239,000, relatively affordable. It’s also got plenty of prewar charm to it–including the retro television set in the living room! The layout, complete with foyer and dining area, is also ideal. Think the price will fly?

  1. Nice place. . .but for the same price, you could buy at 50 Lefferts, which is a much better location and most established coop in the nabe.
    This spot is just a bit off the beaten track in Lefferts Manor.

  2. Rob – mortgage at 10% down would be about $1260/month at 5.125%, including PMI but not including taxes or CC’s. At 20% down your mortgage would be about $1040/month at the same interest rate.

    This is a nice place at a reasonable price for the area. I’m not in the market for 1 BR’s (even if I was in the market at all), or I’d be more interested. $1600/month including cc’s (40% of which are deductible) isn’t bad at all for a big 1 BR.

  3. “at $239,000, relatively affordable” — The newfound sensitivity is adorable.

    This is a great apartment I have to admit (and i don’t do that regularly). And i like that the nifty old-timey fridge is included!

    I wonder how stable the maintenance fee is. Would I be looking at $1600-1700 a month now, and then $2000 next year when they realize they’re bankrupt and need a new roof?

  4. I love this apt! Has original kitchen, a proper entry with oblique entrance, and all the bookshelves I need. Hope the bath is original too. It’s also on the train that goes directly to my job. It just needs one more bedroom and then it would be perfect and I might actually consider buying it.
