Perfectly situated on a sprawling 67 x 120 corner parcel, on the most coveted street in the Prospect Park South Historic District, stands the enchanting 1221 Albemarle Road. Built for real estate developer George W. May in 1904, and designed by the architect William C. Lauritzen, this 6 bedroom, 3.5 bath Colonial Revival mansion has breathtakingly gracious proportions, a perfect layout, beautifully preserved original detail AND has been meticulously restored and renovated to include state of the art mechanical systems and materials that afford the efficiency, comfort and luxury of a brand new home.
