Classic Limestone Townhouse with Endless Potential in the Heart of Prospect Lefferts Gardens
Welcome to 253 Rutland Road, a 20-foot-wide, two-family limestone nestled on a picturesque tree-lined block in vibrant Prospect Lefferts Gardens. Offered for the first time in over 60 years, this stately home spans more than 3,000 square feet across three floors, plus a full semi-finished cellar and charming front and rear gardens. The lot stretches 100 feet deep, offering both space and opportunity.
Currently configured as an owner’s garden/parlor duplex with a top-floor two-bedroom plus office rental, the layout provides flexibility for end users or investors alike. The rental unit is in move-in-ready condition and easy to lease, while the owner’s duplex—brimming with original details and classic charm—is perfectly livable but primed for a kitchen and bath update to bring it to the next level.
The home features six bedrooms and three bathrooms in total, with mechanicals in excellent condition, including a newer water heater and an efficient gas burner. Whether you envision a luxurious single-family conversion or continued use as a two-family with income potential, the possibilities here are abundant.
Located just outside the landmarked single-family district, this block of Rutland Road is known for its architectural continuity, community feel, and quiet elegance. Enjoy being just moments from Prospect Park and multiple subway lines (B/Q at Prospect Park and 2/5 at Winthrop), with easy access to neighborhood favorites like Camillo, Antilles , Hamlet and the Botanic Garden.
Open House: Saturday & Sunday, 1:00 – 2:30 PM
