Real Estate Roundup: Neighborly Edition

This week, we’re featuring a whole array of real estate options straight from neighbors. There’s an open house, a summer sublet, a lease takeover, and even a collaborative living opportunity in a Victorian for the free spirits among us. Check ’em out, and give your neighbors a shout.

SUBLET

Summer Limestone by the Park
Available: July 29-August 25
Price: $500/week or $1,600 for all four weeks
Details: This three bedroom limestone townhouse features a large backyard (see top photo) with a deck and hammock swing, plus a “rock-n-roll basement.” Two of the bedrooms are already set up for kids, making it perfect for a family visiting other South Brooklynites or waiting to move into a newly-purchased, not-yet-vacated home in Ditmas. With a bed in the basement, this sublet on Clarkson between Flatbush and Bedford, two blocks from Prospect Park and Q train, sleeps six comfortably.
