This modest but architecturally attractive limestone at 307 Winthrop Street in Prospect Lefferts Gardens got our attention with its $550,000 asking price. While the facade looks nice, we’re a little worried about what the interior must look like, given that it’s currently chopped up into three units with a total of nine (!) bedrooms. The block is also not the neighborhood’s finest. Then again, the listing says that the owners “will listen to all offers” so perhaps there’s a deal to be had.

This is Flatbush. White People please go home and leave us alone.
I walk by this place every day. It is right next ot Winthrop subway station near Kings County Hospital. there is always a group of teens hanging outside of it. My guess is that it is a mess inside.
Bob Marvin,
I stand corrected. But that particular intersection (Nostrand and Winthrop) doesn’t have a PLG feel to it in my opinion. I associated PLG with areas such as Flatbush and Winthrop, Bedford and Rutland, etc. I now see the boundaries are clarkson, ocean, empire, and ny ave. so its right near the border i guess.
shitty house/shitty neighborhood..
Hey don’t knock the fence – even the best brooklyn brownstones have disgusting chain link fences in the back gardens.
anon – i would welcome the opportunity.
aj,
It IS Prospect Lefferts Gardens–Wingate/East Flatbush starts a block east, across New York Avenue.
