The Bed Stuy listings just keep on coming. Here’s one we can sink our teeth into, with plenty of details and some interesting decor choices. The mechanicals have been updated, according to the listing, and most of the original details are in place. Just what we love to hear! Such details include a pier mirror, fretwork, built-ins, pocket doors, bay windows, stained glass, shutters, original closets, and mantels. The entrance is particularly stunning, with a ton of woodwork, a hat rack, a seat, and a little shelf, and what appears to be the original painted ceiling. The building is currently configured as two floor-through rentals over an owner’s duplex. They’re asking $2,000,000. That is quite close to the current Bed Stuy residential record holder, 254 Gates Avenue, designed by the Parfitt Brothers, which closed for $2,200,000 in January. Think they’ll get it?

This question/statement has been made many times and has not been answered.
which schools are people that are Buying 2M dollar townhouses in bed stuy sending their kids to?
or are these buyers all childless?
I like everything about it except the kitchen, which I think is really quite awful. Why put THAT kitchen in THIS house?
The sad irony is, of course, that it’s probably at least partially in part to your work, Montrose, that Bed Stuy has been “discovered.” Not entirely, of course–but in part. I wish there was more profit in it for you!
Amen.
