Paminsan-minsan, may isang kaakit-akit, matamis, at dati nang tahanan na nagdadala sa iyo sa mga araw ng nakaraan, mga kwentong sinabi, mga larong nilalaro, mahahabang hapunan hanggang gabi at isang cocktail sa deck. Ito ang isa sa mga ganitong tahanan.

Bumisita ka sa 301 Rugby, at kapag ginawa mo, ayaw mo nang umalis. Nais mong maglaro ng board game o dahan-dahang maglakad sa mga kuwartong pininturahan ng Farrow & Ball, pataas sa asul-itim na pininturahang hagdang-bahayan patungo sa itaas na palapag, kung saan isang loft ang naghihintay sa iyo na may kasamang banyo at roof deck.

Tamang-tama sa gitna ng isang magandang may canopy na block, nandoon ka sa gitna ng kasiyahan, saya, at mga matandang punong kahoy. Isang pakiramdam ng kasaysayan na tanging naisin ng isa na may mga bata na naglalaro ng stick ball sa labas.

Ang 301 Rugby Road ay napanatili ang karamihan sa kanyang sining at mga katangian ng lumang mundo na may mga orihinal na moldings, frame ng pinto, sliding doors at kamangha-manghang sahig. Mayroon kang modernong, kahanga-hangang disenyo ng kusina na may BlueStar stove, Thermador refrigerator at custom soap stone counters na nakakakuha ng liwanag mula sa oversized swinging doors na humahantong sa likod-bahay o marahil sa garahe upang umalis gamit ang iyong vintage na sasakyan - isang cherry blossom tree sa rearview mirror.

Apat na kwarto, isang sitting room at isang shared hall bath ang pumupuno sa ikalawang palapag. Ang pangunahing suite sa itaas na palapag, na may matataas na kisame at en suite bath, isang home office at isang malaking deck na nakaharap sa silangan.

Ang wrap around front porch, back porch at likod-bahay ay nagbibigay ng higit pang saya at laro.

Ang mataas na kisame ng basement ay nag-aalok ng sapat na espasyo para sa imbakan, laundry room at isang banyo.

3.5 block mula sa Parade Grounds at Prospect Park, kalahating block mula sa Cortelyou Road at 2.5 maikling block sa dalawang Q train stops. Napakaraming amenities. Maraming ibon at mga bubuyog.

Bumisita ka sa 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.
