House of the Day: “Country Flair” on Adelphi

houseThis 4-story brownstone on Adelphi Street just hit the market under the stewardship of Sandra Shepard at Halstead. The house is attractive and certainly has some original details but it falls short of the original perfection that we think is needed to justify a $2 million price tag in Fort Greene these days. And while some of the renovation choices aren’t quite our taste, the house has clearly been redone and lived in by someone who cared about it. Plus, the duplex-over-duplex configuration could help some lucky buyer swing the mortgage payments. We haven’t been inside, but our sense is that this is a $1.8-1.85 million house so it’s priced about right. Have any of you seen it?
