As rents in Bed Stuy skyrocket, it’s easy to forget you can still find deals like this three-bedroom, particularly in eastern Bed Stuy and Ocean Hill. The living room seems nicely sized, and the kitchen and bathroom are both recently updated.
There are two large bedrooms and one smaller one, according to the listing. You could also use it as a two-bedroom and keep the third one as an office or nursery. The location is close to the Bushwick border and two or three blocks from the J at Halsey or the J/Z at Chauncey. Do you think it’s reasonable at $1,800 a month?

I don’t see any room in those pictures that I would consider a “large” bedroom. That said, I don’t see how the price could really be much lower for even a reasonable-sized two bedroom. Do rents get much cheaper for a two-bedroom?
I don’t think there’s anything particularly difficult about the 3 bedrooms to 1 bathroom ratio.
