254 Lefferts Avenue is a stately limestone and brick townhouse located in the heart of the highly sought-after, landmarked Prospect Lefferts Gardens. This well-maintained home retains much of its original charm and is in move-in ready condition, with the owner open to seller financing to suit your vision at the right price.
Configured as a two-family residence, the upper two floors feature a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom owner’s duplex, while the ground level offers a charming, separate 1-bedroom apartment—perfect for generating rental income, hosting guests, or accommodating multigenerational living.
From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by the home’s elegant curb appeal and classic façade. A gracious foyer leads you through original parquet doors into a sun-filled living room with hardwood floors and mahogany inlays throughout. A tucked-away home office nook offers the perfect spot for remote work or quiet study.
This floor also includes a modern bathroom with a deep soaking tub, and a bright hallway that opens into a sun-drenched kitchen featuring modern appliances and generous workspace. Beyond the kitchen, step into one of the home’s standout features—an expansive 50-foot custom-designed backyard, beautifully landscaped with annuals and perennials, ideal for entertaining or peaceful retreat.
Upstairs, the duplex continues with four spacious, light-filled bedrooms, each offering ample closet space. A marble-accented full bathroom completes this level, accessible via the beautifully preserved original staircase.
Enjoy being just moments from Prospect Park, with nearby highlights including the Carousel ice rink, Brooklyn Zoo, and Botanical Garden. You're also steps from popular local spots like Camillo, Bonafini, PLC Coffeehouse & Tavernbar, and The Bobbed Bandit.
Convenient public transportation options include the 2 and 5 trains at Sterling Street and the B and Q trains at Prospect Park Station.
With flexible financing options, this is a rare opportunity to own a classic Brooklyn townhouse on a quiet, tree-lined block in one of the borough’s most desirable and fast-growing neighborhoods.
