This unusual brownstone at 423 Clinton Avenue in Clinton Hill could be an amazing place—the architectural details on the interior look incredible, despite the gloomy exterior—but it’s gonna take some work! And given the fact that it’s a seven-family building, the deal’s bound to have some hair on it. (The listing does say that the 3,750-square-foot house will be delivered empty and there’s no mention of it being and SRO, so maybe our caution is misplaced.) Despite the house’s potential, we think the $1,800,000 asking price is a stretch given how much money the new owner will have to spend on renovations. We just hope it will fall into the hands of someone who really cares.
