Rental of the Day: 254 Bainbridge Street, #1

This renovated two-bedroom duplex in Bed Stuy comes with a swanky hot tub and cedar deck in the backyard. The private backyard also has a stone patio, barbecue and flower bed. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a dishwasher, and the bedroom pictured is big at 15 by 15 feet, according to the listing.

But there’s a catch: It’s listed as a two-bedroom, but the broker tells us the second bedroom doesn’t have a window (though it fits a queen size bed). Also, the lower level appears to be the cellar. The house is only 32 feet deep, but the broker assured us the second bedroom is on the ground floor.

It’s about five blocks from the A/C trains at Utica Avenue. It seems like a lot of space, but we think $2,500 is a big stretch for a one-bedroom in this part of Bed Stuy. What do you think?
