125 Maple Street

Old world splendor and charm exists at 125 Maple Street - a Grande Renaissance Revival townhome in prime Prospect-Lefferts Gardens is truly one of the best homes built in Brooklyn. Situated on a corner 30' by 100' lot, this 25' x 50' limestone townhouse faces all four directions for amazing light no matter the time of day. Built around 1901, this massive property comes adorned with unique details in almost every room.

Entering through the parlor level is one to be experienced as you are greeted with a stained glass foyer, gorgeous hardwood floors with original period details, a decorative fireplace, multiple Corinthian order columns, and spectacular moldings inlaid with an Italian tapestry. The attention to detail and the level of preservation cannot be ignored. The middle and rear parlor is flourished with decorative fireplaces, more stained glass, a gold-leaf lined ceiling and a sun-room.

The details flow from one room to the next with a cohesion and thoughtfulness that make this home warm and inviting. The second and third floors include a formal dining room attached to a chef's kitchen flowing out onto a large sundeck. The top floor has five separate bedrooms of varying sizes with a large master bedroom with a stained glass skylight.

The basement has been fully redone and has transformed into a truly versatile space. A private garage with curb cut and a wine cellar with a built in 212 bottle terra cotta wine rack completes this magnificent property. Located at the corner of Bedford Ave and Maple St. it is two blocks from Prospect Park and minutes to B & Q trains and the Flatbush Avenue commercial strip, hosts to numerous cafes, restaurants and shops.
