288 Hawthorne Street is easily one of Prospect Lefferts Gardens' better kept secrets. A multi-family home just ripe for a loving renovation and with a whole lot to offer, 288 Hawthorne presents a rare opportunity to settle in one of Brooklyn's rapidly growing neighborhoods. Lots and lots of remaining buildable square feet are sure to excite your architect and interior designer and make their pen(s) happy to get to work on this historic home's behalf! Currently, on offer are 8 bedrooms, 2 baths and a yard that is sure to make the new owner (and their tenants, if any) happy to not (have to) drive in endless circles on the daily quest for a parking spot. Read on for a few additional details about the neighborhood that envelops 288 Hawthorne and you will surely want to schedule to view. Only one stop past Park Slope on the Brooklyn-bound Q train sits a charming neighborhood of Prospect Lefferts Gardens. Named after Prospect Park, the Lefferts family homestead, and the Botanical Gardens, the petite neighborhood amalgamates the past with the stylistic aspects of a diverse modern-day Brooklyn. Caribbean culture infuses with a magnetic appeal the neighborhood's many pint-sized stores, corner bodegas, enchanting boutiques, beauty salons, and even the exterior decoration of buildings. Limestone homes, stucco Tudor-style row houses, shingled Victorians, and an occasional brownstone make up most of the neighborhood's housing stock. The locals liken the neighborhood to New York City from a few decades back - full of promise, full of potential. 2, 5 and Q trains await to quickly and efficiently take the residents anywhere in Brooklyn and beyond.
