Overall, this house at 1816 Glenwood Road in Fiske Terrace is very nice for all your standard Victorian Flatbush reasons (porch, lawn, charming architecture, etc.) so maybe it’s a little nit-picky to say that the renovation feels a touch contractor-y. Thankfully most of the things that rub us the wrong way—like the kitchen floor, the floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, the faux retro ceiling fixtures—are easily, and inexpensively fixed. (In contrast, the design choices in the bathroom look quite nice.) All that stuff pales in comparison to the original parquet floors and the generous scale of all the rooms so we’re sure some buyer will fall in love. Whether they will be willing to write a check for $1,300,000 is another question.
