921 Greene Avenue: Pregnant with Possibility

On our way to pick up a new Argington trundle bed for the eldest of the Brownstoner brood over the holidays, we passed this beautiful brick and brownstone house at the corner of Greene Avenue and Malcom X Boulevard in Bed Stuy. Instantly smitten, we headed back to headquarters to find out what the story was. Turns out that it’s an example of what can be scored via foreclosure auction. After the former owner defaulted on a $423,011 loan, some opportunistic investor picked up the four-story house for $575,000. This looks like a great condo conversion to us. GMAP P*Shark DOB
