House of the Day: 560 Putnam Avenue

560putnamave.jpg
Based upon the exterior of the house and the lovely block it’s on, 560 Putnam Avenue in Bedford Stuyvesant looks like an interesting buy at the asking price of $650,000. The three-story, two-family house hasn’t changed hands in a long, long time nor has it had any renovations that would merit a filing with DOB. Both of these factors help explain the low annual taxes of $839. They also suggest that whoever buys the house will probably have some work to do. That’s fine given the price. The big question is whether this is a time capsule with original details or something that been destroyed over time. Anyone know?
