The single-family homes in Prospect Park South often offer a suburban-like living experience right in Brooklyn, and this charmer at 169 Stratford Road is no exception. Built in 1899 and listed for $2,595,000, the 2,844-square-foot house has six bedrooms, a front porch, side porch, a rear deck and lovely backyard, and even a gated driveway.
The entry foyer exhibits the original details seen throughout the home–moldings, woodwork, inlaid floors, and pocket doors. The foyer features a built-in bench, coat closet, and an updated half bath.
Off the foyer is a study that’s currently set up as a playroom.
On the other side of the foyer is the living room, which has a lovely bay window facing the street.
From there, the wood-paneled dining room gives off a mid-century vibe. There’s an adjacent butler’s pantry.
The kitchen has top-of-the-line appliances including a Wolf double oven and built-in coffee maker. There’s a built-in banquette and sliding glass doors that lead to the rear deck.
The backyard is beautifully landscaped.
There are four bedrooms on the second floor, two of which are linked by a shaving sink vanity. There’s also a full bathroom with a glass shower and freestanding soaking tub. There are two more bedrooms and another full bath on the third floor, along with a generous amount of under-eave storage.
There’s also a finished basement with a half bath and laundry room.
The home is four blocks from the Beverley Road Q train station and a quick walk to Prospect Park.
