The top 10 listings on Brownstoner this week included a brick house with an open plan in Gowanus, a Italianate in Clinton Hill and a gothic row house in the unique Warren Place Mews.

There were multiple listings this week in Crown Heights, Bed Stuy and Park Slope. The least expensive home on the list was a Dutch Colonial-style house in Marine Park asking $1.099 million, and the priciest was the Park Slope home of actors Emily Blunt and John Krasinki at $8 million.

Which would you choose?

10. Here’s a prime specimen of a Park Slope brownstone, elegant, spacious and move-in ready. Dating to 1891 and designed by Rudolf L. Daus, according to the listing, it sits at 426 4th Street, where it cuts a fine figure from the street, with a generous stoop and an angled facade that’s complemented by the curved front of the house next door.

9. This home is a flip on Lincoln Place in Crown Heights, which was bought in February and completely overhauled. An unorthodox layout on this one, which has a three-bedroom triplex with a double-height ceiling spanning the rear of the garden and parlor levels, with the kitchen in the rear of the garden level and a studio apartment in the front. The reno features a lot of exposed brick, white oak herringbone floors and wooden railings.

8. This one is a three-story on MacDonough Street in Bed Stuy, which is having its first showing. Renovated but not a flip, the house is a three-family, with an apartment on each floor. It offers some bright, high-ceilinged spaces, with original details including mantles, moldings and fretwork. A nice quirk here is that the middle of the house gets some sunlight due to an interior courtyard between this house and the adjoining one.

7. In Crown Heights, we find a four-story tan brick and limestone number on Bergen Street, in the Crown Heights North Historic District. This one delivers in the original detail department, with mirrors, tiled mantels, crown moldings, wainscoting, mahogany millwork and more. Maybe parquet floors as well, though at the moment whatever’s there is covered with carpet. It all looks to be in decent shape, as far as what’s pictured, though there’s work to be done here — the listing makes that clear.

6. This home is one of the highly coveted mews houses on Warren Place in the Cobble Hill Historic District. Need we say more? Actually there’s not a whole lot more we can say based on photo evidence, but the listing tells us the 1878 house has been renovated within the last seven years, with new windows, a heating/cooling system and a repointed facade. It’s a small one, as these houses are, with three stories — two bedrooms on the top, double parlor in the middle and kitchen/dining room below. There are four working marble fireplaces and a landscaped cobblestone patio.

5. Here’s a Park Slope limestone on a park block that’s flat-out gorgeous, packed with details and spruced up by a high-end architectural renovation. Oh, and the sellers are Hollywood stars — John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, as reported by the Wall Street Journal and subsequently many another outlet. The house is loaded with original detail in peak condition, including mantels, a pier mirror, stained glass windows, wood paneling, and inlaid floors.

4. This house is a freestanding early 20th century Dutch Colonial-style single-family with a gambrel roof and front lawn on Marine Parkway in Marine Park. It sits on a 3,100-square-foot lot with a driveway, a detached garage, and a backyard with an above-ground pool. Condition looks good, and there are original parquet floors and a charming green-and-black tiled vintage bathroom, but some updating is needed, in the kitchen and elsewhere.

3. This one is a three-story brownstone on MacDonough Street in Bed Stuy, which dates back to 1891, according to the listing. It could use a bit of work but overall it looks to be in pretty good shape, with original details including wainscoting, crown moldings, pocket doors, fireplace mantels and wood floors. There’s a garden rental and a two-bedroom upper duplex, which has an upper deck and access to the yard via a spiral staircase.

2. This home is a 23.75-foot-wide frame Italianate with a mansard roof, arch-topped dormers and columned front porch on Classon Avenue in Clinton Hill. The listing calls it 150 years old, which sounds right on the nose. It’s fully renovated, with modern elements alongside a fair amount of original detail, including marble mantels, mirrors and tin ceilings. It’s set up as a duplex over a one-bedroom rental.

1. On 14th Street in Gowanus, we’ve got an offbeat property, a three-story brick house with a measure of rustic charm that’s a mere 15 feet wide, on a largely industrial block. All the floors are open, with a kitchen/dining space on the bottom, a living room with exposed brick walls on the ground floor and a single large bedroom and bath upstairs. There’s a nice yard with a brick patio and planting beds in the back; beyond that is a separate studio of 141 square feet.
