House of the Day: 49 Rutland Road
This place sure is purdy.
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.

“Be careful what you wish for,” Westbrook said. “They wanted to make sure that people kept paying their credit cards, and what they’re getting is more foreclosures.”
Yep! This shit is getting fun by the hour!!!!

Wow, this place is really really beautiful. No question about that. But I wouldn’t live in this neighborhood. If I had that kind of money (which I don’t!), I’d keep my cozy 2-bedroom co-op in a safer, more convenient, more well-serviced Brooklyn neighborhood, and then buy a really really beautiful little house in the country.
If they could put this house in Crown Heights I would buy it.

“Jeez, The What…

Why hate?
The place is beautiful and so is the block.
yeah I will take a cold, leaning to the side, siding, ugly window house in a designer neighborhood anyday over this architectural beauty… I know we all live, entertain and sleep inside the “shops, restaurants and grocery stores”
Jeez, The What…

“…the love you will feel in every square inch of the place.”
Can I skip feeling the love in every square inch of the toilets?
K thx!
“I am the owner of the house.
Wait till you see the other rooms that are not shown in pics, plus the love you will feel in every square inch of the place.
There’s a sun-drenched library room with bay window, ornate bathroom with original clawfoot tub and fixtures, plus marble pass-through sinks and tiled fireplaces in every bedroom.
The parlor floor has 3 floor to ceiling pier mirrors, all dating from the turn of the last century.
The yellow roses are still out in the front yard!
Come down and see for yourself this weekend.”
Put down the crack pipe homeboy. Come to Jesus!
LMAO

1.45 million could buy me a helluva lot more love down by the Christopher Street piers.
