We love our Italianate brownstone, don’t get us wrong, but we can’t help but occasionally fantasize about shacking up in one of these far rarer antebellum woodframe houses that dot Fort Greene, Brooklyn Heights and a few other pockets of Brooklyn. (There are also a few left in the West Village and Upper East Side.) Judging from the photo on Property Shark, the facade recently got a tune-up. The location is also solid–two blocks from Tillies and two blocks from the park–though a drive-by this weekend (and resulting photo at top) reminded us that it’s not Fort Greene’s most scenic block. Nitpicks about the renovation aside, we bet this place will move rather quickly. (Hell, there was an open house this weekend–maybe there’s already an offer on the table.)
