467 Rugby Road, Brooklyn, (Ditmas Park), NY, 11226

Every aspect of this gorgeous, fully renovated single-family house has been thoughtfully crafted, mixing old-world original details with modern features. The house has 5 bedrooms, an office, three full bathrooms, two half-baths, a bright rec room, a driveway, and a garage. The house was renovated by designers who live on the same street, a few blocks away. They have done many homes in the area over the past 20 years, have an excellent track record, and can provide references upon request. They stand by their projects and look forward to being neighbors with the new owners. No expense was spared on this renovation. Extensive original oak moldings, floors and doors were lovingly restored, so the house retains its original charm and history. Most importantly, all of the plumbing, electrical, and heating/cooling systems are entirely new, done by highly reputable contractors. There is not a single length of original pipe or electrical cable remaining in the house. It was all replaced. It’s rare for these old Victorian houses in Ditmas to be outfitted with all-new mechanical systems and still retain their charm, but it’s been done here. Additionally, the house sits within a newly created Landmarked district, so the look of the houses on this block and adjacent blocks will be preserved. Sadly, that can’t be said for many other blocks in Ditmas. The open-plan kitchen and dining room are suffused with light from the rear wall of glass overlooking the backyard and a bay window to the side. The kitchen is a cook’s dream. The huge island has seating for four. There is plenty of counter space to prep your favorite meals. Appliances are high-end: a JennAir fridge, a Bosch dishwasher, a Bertazzoni induction stove, and a very quiet, properly vented range hood. The dining area easily accommodates an oversized table to seat 10 or more. The living room is perfectly proportioned. There is a half-bath on the main floor, tucked away by the side entrance to the house. From the main floor, Ipe hardwood steps lead down to the backyard, custom-designed for entertaining and play. The grassy area is large enough to play badminton or soccer, or to teach your dog to fetch. The patio is perfect for outdoor dining and grilling. The garage is full of potential, ranging from an open cabana, to an enclosed home office. Cedar fencing surrounds the yard. The second floor has three bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with its generous closets and huge ensuite bathroom with tub, shower, double sinks, all bathed in natural light. The third floor has two bedrooms, an office, and a bathroom. The third floor is very unique. New dormers create unusually shaped spaces and unexpected views of the neighborhood. It’s delightful and will make you smile. Oversized windows bring light into the basement, which is large enough for a TV room, a pingpong table, a play area, an exercise area, and many other uses. Throughout the house you’ll find wallpapers from Hygge and West, lighting by Schoolhouse Electric and West Elm, and Zellige tiles in the bathrooms. This all-electric house has new energy-star rated windows, Mitsubishi heating and cooling, new roofing, new HardiPlank siding and wiring for an EV charger. Perfect, bucolic Ditmas Park location. Convenient to the Q train. 1.5 blocks off Cortelyou. Close to the restaurants and shops on Cortelyou and beyond, including the Flatbush Food Coop, Castello Plan, Ayat, Cafe Madeline, Victorian Cafe, Bad Therapy, Corthaiyou, La Puerta Roja, Pad Kra Prow Thai Street Food, Manchego, Milk and Honey Cafe, Grounds of Brooklyn, The Ox Tavern, Brooklyn Artery, Taylor & Co Books, and more.
