Lefferts Historic House

Inside Prospect Park, this 18th-century Dutch farmhouse has period rooms festooned with farm implements, bouquets of herbs and antique ceramics, with a working garden outside. The former home of army lieutenant Pieter Lefferts, the house was moved here in the early 20th century from its original location on Flatbush Ave, in a neighborhood now called Prospect Lefferts Gardens.
