This two-family brick townhouse at 820 Macon Street facing Saratoga Park in far eastern Bed Stuy is reasonably priced for a part of the neighborhood where most listings seem to hover around a million dollars.
The home is large–19 feet by 55 feet. It has a top-floor, two-bedroom unit which would likely be used as a rental and a lower two-bedroom unit that has access to the finished basement which has windows and a bathroom but is quite a bit below grade. All of the woodwork is painted but it does have some details including moldings and a pier mirror plus it has that great barrel-front facade. The bathrooms and kitchens will need a major overhaul and its hard to tell what kind of shape the floors are in.
What do you think of it for $825,000?

Price sounds about right considering the market in Bed-Stuy – there’s a very similar property (open listing) in the area on Herkimer in the price range as well!
