10. This duplex in an 1890 Bed Stuy brownstone checks a lot of boxes: It’s lovely, spacious, well appointed, reasonably priced and carries no fee. And it’s well located to boot, on a nice brownstone-lined block of Jefferson Street in Stuy Heights. The upper duplex of two in the house, it’s full of period details in top shape.

9. This seven-bedroom Prospect Park South standalone with double front porches needs updating, but it’s got lots of space and lots of potential. A Colonial Revival built in 1909, it’s on Stratford Road, in the Prospect Park South Historic District. The place has been in the same family for decades, and while it looks to be in decent general shape it shows plenty of wear.

It’s on the third floor of a four-unit brick townhouse on Hicks Street in the Brooklyn Heights Historic District.

6. Here’s a Bed Stuy brownstone that’s newly renovated — and not by flippers. Some care and expense went into updating this one, a late 19th century Romanesque Revival that sits at 611 Macon Street, between Malcolm X Boulevard and Patchen Avenue. Twenty feet wide, it’s a two-family, with a one-bedroom rental on the garden level and a three-bedroom duplex above.

4. An aluminum-sided four-story on Pulaski Street in Bed Stuy comes billed as “the perfect blank canvas,” with “great bones.” It’s set up with an apartment on each floor, though it’s a legal two-family.

It’s a small one, under 1000 square feet in total, not counting the basement.

2. In Bed Stuy we’ve got a three-story brownstone on Monroe Street that’s new to the market, has seen better days and is in need of restoration and renovation. The listing calls it “early 19th century,” which seems about a century off, but its claim that the place holds some prime details is on target: it’s got pocket doors, fretwork, a pier mirror, crown moldings and at least one mantle.
