House of the Day: 483 Putnam Avenue
This three-story brownstone at 483 Putnam Avenue in Bedford Stuyvesant is a charmer. The parlor floor of the owner’s duplex is stunning, and it looks like the rest of the house has its share of original details as well. If this were four stories, we’d say that the asking price of $809,000 looked pretty good….

If this were four stories, we’d say that the asking price of $809,000 looked pretty good. At three stories and only about 2,500-square-feet, it’s not as compelling as Thursday’s House of the Day. But given that this place changed hands for $700,000 two years ago, it’s not crazy either. We’ll be surprised if they get their price though in this market.

2:31 = elitist
Yeah 2:31 but then you’d have to deal with all the stroller moms….
I wonder how much this house would go for in North Park Slope 2 million maybe?
I drove the block Sunday. This house is on a hot block. Like Lil’ Wayne Hot. People were barbequing in their front yards. Looked crazy. If you are willing to live like that,
god be with you.
Sorry 2:12…I didn’t label myself as the official spokesperson..you did. And, its only 3 avenues west of Stuyvesant….Those streets are “more fringe” than Stuyvesant. They are certainly FAR more commercial.
The Nostrand walk is not “safer” than a walk down Lewis or Stuyvesant.
For all of you out there interested in this house, Marcus Garvey, Throop, Tompkins, Marcy & Nostrand are not unsafe streets. That said, they are not as “nice” as Lewis & Stuyvesant and for that matter may appear “less safe.” But they are more commercial and oftentimes not good commercial.
Taking the C is a waste of time if you’re headed into Manhattan..you need to change to the A anyway, unless a longer ride is what you’re interested in.
Dave, You are not the offical bedstuy spoke person on Brownstoner.
483 Putnam is about 4 to 5 Avenues west of Stuyvesant. Less fringe. Just man up and admit you made an error with your “major drawback” statement. Cut the troll crap out.
I made a mistake about the nostrand station but it’s still closer and safer than the Utica walk. Also I said I “own” on the block dont make assumptions.
1:50–
I suspect the top floor is the rental.
This looks like a nice reno, but the configuration is less than ideal.
Wow! Check out the new metrosexual Jerry Minsky!
And fourth 1:46…there isn’t anything “nice” in Clinton Hill that’s close enough to bother walking to. The closest place would be Choice…Lafayette & Classon? That’s along way and a crappy neighborhood to walk through.
That said, this house is closer to Taco Poblano on Broadway about 2 blocks SE of Throop!!! The only redeeming logistical attribute that I’ve found so far.
