Now on the market for the first time in half a century, this four-level, 5,604-square-foot home offers seven bedrooms, three full, and three half bathrooms. A welcoming front porch invites you into this Victorian-era home with period details like soaring ceilings, crown mouldings, meticulously maintained hardwood parquet flooring, and cozy fireplaces that give it its charm and character. Sunlight fills every generously proportioned room. Lovingly maintained, the home's well laid-out floor plan gives it "great bones" and presents an exceptional opportunity for thoughtful updates.   The main level features a spacious living room anchored by a fireplace, plus a den that can be used as a home office. All indoor living spaces are crafted in the timeless and elegant style of the home's original era. The home's expansive footprint provides a blank canvas for customization to fit your lifestyle-and with four levels, including a full basement-there's ample space to create a library, home gym, wine cellar, or reading room, and realize all of your needs and dreams.    The home's primary suite occupies a prominent position on the second floor, complete with its own balcony, fireplace, and private powder room. Additional bedrooms feature fireplaces and ensuite bathrooms. From nearly every window, enjoy views of the tree-lined streets and the bucolic charm of the surrounding neighborhood. Outside, an unusually expansive 60-foot by 100-foot lot boasts mature trees and landscaping, and a sought-after garden patio.   Prospect Park South is one of New York City's most architecturally significant communities.   Established in 1899 by architect developer Dean Alvord and landmarked in 1978, the neighborhood is renowned for its grand Victorian homes and an eclectic mix of styles, from Queen Anne and Colonial Revival to Tudor, Italianate, and even Japanese, making it one of Brooklyn's most unique neighborhoods with its park-like setting.   The home's lower level can be customized to the new owner's specifications. A two-car garage and private driveway provide rare convenience in this historic district, with Prospect Park, the Parade Grounds, and Cortelyou Road's dining and shopping just moments away. Commuting is easy via the nearby Beverley Road Q station, B/Q trains, and an express bus to Manhattan at Cortelyou Road. 194 Rugby Road perfectly balances historic charm with modern city living, and embodies both the history and enduring elegance of Brooklyn. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a distinguished residence in one of the most coveted neighborhoods within Victorian Flatbush.
