House of the Day: 1052 Dean Street

Here’s an interesting one on Dean Street one block west of the proposed Crown Heights North Historic District (see map here). At $690,000, this has got to be one of the cheaper brownstones around and could be an interesting way to play the expected landmarking. One would think that this area between Prospect Heights and the proposed Historic District would improve over time, especially as projects like Pacific Blue). As for the house itself, it’s a solid three-story, three-family with decent (though not lavish) original details. We drove past it this past weekend and the block is largely townhouses that are in pretty good shape. We bet a buyer could get a lot done with $100,000 reno in this place and could end up with a nice owner’s duplex and a one-floor rental. How about this realtor? Anyone ever dealt with Lucien Perry?
