258 Sterling sits in a row of neo-renaissance barrel-fronted brownstones set back from the street and shielded by the trees in the heart of Prospect Lefferts Gardens. This historic 20’ wide home exudes old world elegance, while also providing a perfect setting for modern day living.

The sunlit rooms, gracious proportions, and original details, including hardwood, parquet floors, and built-in china cabinets, create a beautiful backdrop for comfortable living and entertaining. Some modern conveniences include central air conditioning.

Boasting 2400 square feet of living space, this home features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large finished basement, ensuring plenty of room for family and guests.

The classic front parlor and separate dining room are a perfect space to gather. The center parlor has a decorative fireplace and provides an additional seating area or can be used as an office or music room.
Off the dining room, you’ll find an eat-in kitchen with a door that leads to an ample sized deck for grilling dinner or sipping your morning coffee. Stairs off the deck lead to a large, sun-kissed private backyard.

The second floor houses a spacious primary bedroom, three additional bedrooms, and a full bath.
In the basement, which can be accessed down a staircase from the kitchen or through a private entrance under the stoop, you will find high ceilings, a full bath, a laundry area, and storage closets. Here, the possibilities for use are endless. Create a comfy den to relax and watch TV in, a home gym, a media room, a play area, or any combination you’d like.

Situated on Sterling Street between Nostrand and Rogers, this beautiful home sits on a leafy, landmarked block. Prospect Park, Brooklyn’s largest greenspace, is at your doorstep! The longtime owners of this home reminisce about their long bike rides through the park on warm summer days. Transportation is easy. The 2, 5 trains and a Citibike station are right on the corner. And some of Brooklyn’s finest cultural institutions: the Brooklyn Museum, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and the Central Library are only moments away. Close by, you will also find excellent shops, restaurants, and cafes. Some local hot spots include: Camillo, Kulushkat, De Hot Pot, PLG Coffee House, Lincoln Market, and the 3rd generation, family-owned Allan’s Bakery.

Located in the vibrant and sought-after neighborhood of Prospect Lefferts Gardens, this is an opportunity to own a beautiful home and a piece of Brooklyn’s architectural heritage.
