Condos of the Day: 83 Halsey Street
This three-unit brownstone condo at 83 Halsey Street in Bedford Stuyvesant just hit the market last week. There are three units, two 725-square-footers priced at $425,000 and on 971-square-foot place priced at $550,000. It’s a beautiful building from the outside but the one interior photo is really NOT doing it for us. How do you…

Not greedy – smart. Dave, I live in a 2br, 1.5 bath if you really must know. It’s 1250 sq feet with loads of prewar charm.
Its a great location but these apartments are overpriced and the renovation looks horrible.
I’m guessing at these numbers but I know the market in that area pretty well:
Say the whole building before renovation would be worth $750K
and the renovation cost $200K, then, with soft costs, etc, the owner spent around $1m or $1.1… With two units at $425,000 and a third at $550,000 plus a fourth not on the market (already sold?) which was probably the same $425K. Thats a total of $1,825,000 for the apartments. Thats just greedy.
Hmmmm wait a minute….. Now you are taking this too far
Prp Joe what happened why are your so angry what happened to you in Bed-Stuy did you come down here and pretty disappointed when you could not afford the beautiful housing stock here in Bed-Stuy and then you decided to but your tiny closet in Fort Green??? Ahh people Prop Joe is just angry because lives in a closet with one window…
I guess PropJoe doesn’t actually get out much. He certainly likes to comment on what he apparently has never seen.
Two of the original 4 apartments in this building have closed, including the most expensive unit, on the parlor floor. This block of Halsey St is very pretty, and Nostrand Ave in this area has such architectural gems as the Alhambra apartments and the former Girls High School. The A and C trains are one block away.
There are very few brownstone condos out there, and the price on these isn’t bad — they’d be nearly twice that in any of the more gentrified brownstone neighborhoods.
Fort Greene has always been great since I’ve lived here (late 90’s). Prior to that, I grew up in the Heights & bounced around lower Manhattan after University. Fort Greene, Downtown and Boerum Hill are much like lower Manhattan was 12-15 years ago. Very Cool. On the flip side, dirty, crime-ridden Ghetto Bed Stuy will never be cool nor gentrified by educated white, blacks and asians. Just not happening. Enjoy your Pawn Shops, Check Cashing joints, Kennedy Fried Chicken and the crime by the Project Boyz!
I am not Dave. Nice try though, loser.
Agree with you Myside.
Everyone…we have a new loser here….PropJoe
