Park Slope Brownstone With Faux-Painted Mantels and Two More to See, Starting at $1.65 Million

Our picks for open houses to check out this weekend all have an impressive amount of historic detail and room for updates. Ranging in price from $1.65 million to $2.75 million, they are found in Park Slope, Flatbush’s Fiske Terrace and South Midwood.

In Park Slope close to Prospect Park, a narrow brownstone outside the historic district has notable Neo-Grec features such as stone mantels with faux-painted marble and incised details, eclectic woodwork with strappy motifs, and plasterwork including angular ceiling medallions. Originally a single-family, the two-family is set up with a floor-through apartment over a duplex. While everything appears to be in move-in condition, a new owner might want to update wet rooms and restore the front door.

In South Midwood, an early 20th century single-family standalone once had a shingled-covered exterior with witch’s hat turret until it was covered in siding. The wraparound porch appears in good condition, and there is a garage and driveway. The interior is a cornucopia of original details, including mantels, stained glass and fretwork screens. Large at nearly 3,000 square feet and with six bedrooms and three bathrooms, according to the listing, it appears to need skim coating and updates to wet rooms. An auxiliary water heater and the roof are both new.
