House of the Day: 29 Maple Street
29 Maple Street isn’t as charming on the outside as a lot of other houses in Prospect Lefferts Gardens but the interior has a lot of charm. The private driveway is a serious bonus, as is the third exposure it creates on the side of the house which results in tons of sunlight. The house…
29 Maple Street isn’t as charming on the outside as a lot of other houses in Prospect Lefferts Gardens but the interior has a lot of charm. The private driveway is a serious bonus, as is the third exposure it creates on the side of the house which results in tons of sunlight. The house traded for $595,000 in 2004. Now it’s asking $899,000. Let’s go to the pricing widget…
29 Maple Street [Brown Harris Stevens] GMAP P*Shark
i think the house is very cute. the pricing has been so odd over in this area. the 16 footer on rutland was listed 1.3M, then like a month ago another small rutland house was over 1M. so i have no clue on price, i would guess 750k.
gemini10 – i grew up/lived my entire life in bk and i do think your husband is off the mark. the area in not perfect but there are alot of families. infact i have 2 good friends who grew up in this nabe and they both come from very good families (both parents were doctors). your husband probably grew up in an different area and is going by rumor b/c he obviously is not familiar with anything other than flatbush ave.
The stats from the precinct for the PLG area don’t support what you’re saying about being one of the most high crime areas, Gemini. Just so you know.
While I can’t afford it… a $800k price tag actually makes sense in my little head. What I mean is that it doesn’t hurt this think that someone is shelling out that much cash.
(Actually, that might be my mental capacity in general for an “ordinary” house.)

More than “nearly.”
FLH: Isn’t the HOD the SAME house you link to?
Pretty on the inside.
I’m going to let someone else say it.
Agree that it looks nice, but as others have said Lefferts Manor is known for its beautiful houses.
Not so enthused about the layout. Driveway that everyone loves makes for narrower house. . . i’d want a 20-foot wide living room.
Also location is not best in LM. Very convenient to train/park but also a bit too close to corner of flatbush with liquor store and hangout issues.
I’d say under 800K is a good buy. . . .
