On the Market In Stuy Heights

The Sunday NY Times featured an incredible looking 4-story house at 142 MacDonough Street in Stuyvesant Heights that is on the market for $699,000. In the same family for the past 60 years, the house is dripping with old-school details, including pier mirrors, mahogony bannisters and multiple mantels. Even though the house probably needs $200,000-$250,000 of love, this is the kind of place we drool over. Given some of the charmless crap that is on the market in Bed Stuy right now in this price range, this place looks pretty tempting. Even if we didn't have enough dough for the reno right now, we'd rather camp out in a place like this than exist in some of the interiors that the flippers are putting in these days.
