A turn-of-the-century home at 100 Rugby Road [just sold for $2.1 million](http://www.6sqft.com/2-1m-sale-at-100-rugby-road-is-record-breaker-for-prospect-park-south/?ref=bklyner.com) – which, although it’s not the total record-breaker that [CityRealty](http://www.cityrealty.com/?ref=bklyner.com) say it is, it’s definitely one of the most expensive sales in our neighborhood’s history.

The [most expensive](/blog/real-estate/top-5-biggest-residential-sales-in-ditmas-park-in-the-last-10-years-sponsored) home sale was this house’s neighbor at 145 Rugby Road, which sold for $2.2 million last September – placing the 100 Rugby Road’s $2.1 million in a close second place. Had it sold at its [original asking price](/blog/real-estate/the-next-huge-flatbush-sale-2-275-million-for-100-rugby-road) of $2.275 million, it would have topped a string of top-dollars sales – including the [$2 million Colonial revival at 114 Westminster Road](/blog/real-estate/114-westminster-road-sells-after-13-years-for-2m) and [1029-1035 Cortelyou Road](/blog/real-estate/building-on-corner-of-stratford-cortelyou-sells-for-2-million), which sold for “well above the asking price” at $2 million following more than 20 all-cash offers. And another home, at 112 Marlborough, [has been listed](http://www.elliman.com/new-york-city/112-marlborough-road-brooklyn-dqneqqc?ref=bklyner.com) for $2,195,000.

The [seven-bedroom, 3.5-bath home](http://www.6sqft.com/2-1m-sale-at-100-rugby-road-is-record-breaker-for-prospect-park-south/?ref=bklyner.com), which is 2,990 square feet and sits on a 6,000-square-foot lot, was built in 1900 by [Dean Alvord](http://www.nytimes.com/1997/03/23/realestate/delicately-oriental-but-practical.html?ref=bklyner.com), a developer who purchased 60 acres of farmland to construct [what he called](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prospect%5FPark%5FSouth,%5FBrooklyn?ref=bklyner.com) a “country in the city.” The Landmarks Commission’s Prospect Park South Historic District [designation report](http://www.nyc.gov/html/lpc/downloads/pdf/reports/PROSPECT%5FPARK%5FSOUTH%5FHISTORIC%5FDISTRICT.pdf?ref=bklyner.com) described the home as “an exceptional wooden structure modeled after a picturesque rustic Swiss chalet.”

What do you think? Are these $2 million-plus home sales going to continue?
