A Big One-Bedroom in Crown Heights Close to Franklin Avenue

This one-bedroom duplex on Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights does not offer much in terms of historic detail despite the fact that it is in a barrel-fronted limestone apartment building. But what it lacks in historic charm, it makes up for with space.

The unit is 1,140 square feet over two floors. It has exclusive access to a 24-foot-by-20-foot rear garden. The lower level of the duplex has a window and could be used as a bedroom, according to the ad, although the lower level is marked “recreation space” on the floor plan and appears to be located in the cellar.

The building is about five blocks to the 2,3,4,5 train and one block from shops on Franklin Avenue. The ask is $739,000. Worth it?
