301 RUGBY Road

Every once in a while, a charming, sweet, and erstwhile home comes that remind you of days of yore, stories told, games played, long dinners into the night and a cocktail on the deck. This is one such home. Come visit 301 Rugby, and when you do, you will not wanna leave. You'll want to play a board game or gently walk through the Farrow & Ball painted rooms, up the blue-black lacquered banister stairs to the top floor, where a loft awaits you with an en suite bath and a roof deck. Plumbly centered in the middle of a beautiful canopied block, you are in the middle of the fun, the joy, the old growth trees. A sense of history that one only wishes there were children playing stick ball outside. 301 Rugby Road has retained most of its craftsmanship and old world qualities with original moldings, door frames, sliding doors and amazing flooring. You have a modern, fantastically designed kitchen with BlueStar stove, Thermador fridge and custom soap stone counters that gets sunlight all day long from the oversized swinging doors that lead out to the backyard or perhaps to the garage to drive away in your vintage car - a cherry blossom tree in the rearview mirror. Four bedrooms, a sitting room and a shared hall bath fill the second floor. The top floor primary suite, with peaked ceilings and en suite bath, a home office and a large, east facing deck. The wrap around front porch, back porch and yard allow for more mirth and play. The high-ceiling basement offers ample storage space, laundry room and a bath. 3.5 blocks to the Parade Grounds and Prospect Park, a half block to Cortelyou Road and 2.5 short blocks to two Q train stops. Amenities abound. Birds and bees abound. Come on around 301 Rugby Road.
