Which would you choose?

10. Here’s a four-story brownstone that needs some work, but has some details and offers potential to a buyer who’s up for a renovation project. It’s on Hancock Street, in Stuy Heights, just north of the Stuy Heights Historic District. There’s no floorplan, but the listing tells us it’s a three-family, with a three-bedroom owner’s duplex on the bottom and a pair of two-bedroom apartments above.

9. Here we have a deluxe four-story brick townhouse on Butler Street in Cobble Hill. It’s a nice one, with some high-end upgrading alongside original details, including a working fireplace, moldings and tin and beamed ceilings. There’s an owner’s triplex with the bedrooms on the bottom, and a finished basement below, which offers a den with radiant floor heating.

8. Here’s a Bed Stuy brownstone that’s newly renovated — and not by flippers. Some care and expense went into updating this one, a late 19th century Romanesque Revival that sits at 611 Macon Street, between Malcolm X Boulevard and Patchen Avenue. Twenty feet wide, it’s a two-family, with a one-bedroom rental on the garden level and a three-bedroom duplex above.

7. On Prospect Place in Crown Heights, we find a three-story, semi-detached landmarked house with a columned front porch and upper balcony, designed by Axel Hedman and built circa 1907. A two-family with a duplex over a rental, it looks to be newly restored/renovated with original details including mahogany woodwork, pocket doors, inlaid parquet floors and the original center staircase.

6. Here’s a nice three-bedroom floor-through co-op in the Park Slope Historic District, in good shape and with some choice original detail. Built in 1905, it sits a half block from Prospect Park, on the third floor in a fine figure of a brownstone on 8th Street. In front is a living room with bay windows and a pier mirror, separated from a dining area by a fretwork archway.

5. Here’s an elegant Park Slope townhouse with well-preserved details, up for sale for the first time in over 30 years. Built around the turn of the century at 429 1st Street, it diverges a bit from the usual brownstone formula, with a center staircase, some neo-Colonial detail and a distinctive facade with a single arched window at the parlor level.

4. In Park Slope on 2nd Street, we’ve got a one-family brownstone with bay windows. It’s got original details including wood floors, tin ceilings, molding and five marble mantels. As it stands, the layout’s a bit unorthodox, with the kitchen on the garden level, the master bedroom at the rear of the parlor floor (with access to a wooden deck), and a second living room on the upper floor.

3. This two-bedroom condo in the Columbia Street Waterfront District at 76 President Street doesn’t offer a lot of bells and whistles, but it’s in nice shape and has a large south-facing garden that a buyer with a green thumb could do a lot with. The layout’s simple: an open living room and kitchen, one bathroom, and two midsized bedrooms side by side in the rear.

Price: $895,000

2. Here’s an offbeat property, with four units spread over two separate houses: a brick-fronted Italianate on Prospect Park Southwest in Windsor Terrace and a second house set at the rear of the property, with an enclosed courtyard in between. Such a setup wasn’t uncommon in the 19th century when both structures were built, but it’s rare to find one still standing.

1. Here’s a brand new Red Hook townhouse with a striking modern exterior, designed by the NYC-based firm SHoP Architects, whose resume includes a modest little thing called the Barclays Center and a bunch of other major projects. In the midst of big-ticket projects, they seem to have made time for a relatively modest two-family townhouse on Dikeman Street, a choice spot near Fairway and the shops and restaurants of Van Brunt Street.
