Describing this house at 743 Eastern Parkway in Crown Heights as being “near the Brooklyn Museum” is a bit of a stretch but it’s still kinda interesting, we think. There are two parking spots in the front driveway and a legal professional office on the ground floor for income generation. The two upper floors are currently configured as two separate apartments but there’s no reason they couldn’t be connected to make an owner’s duplex. There’s a surprising amount of original detail left in the house as well. Asking price: $650,000. Good buy?

  1. Give me a heat gun and 500 gallons of paint stripper, and 5 years, and I’ll bring it back to life…

    Seriously, Abby Dupree is hot.

    The house? Think someone will get a good deal, and the selling price won’t have a 6 as the first digit. But that parking spot could prove me wrong. I think off-street parking is worth 50 to 200k, depending on the neighborhood and property.

  2. stringer…i’m not using a potential downpayment to speculate with. I’m using extra capital. There’s a BIG difference. You speculate with your downpayment you’re gonna get screwed. If you don’t understand that then we can all see who the moron is.

    If you’re using a downpayment to speculate in the stock market you’re far more stupid than I thought.

    you should have bought the options. mine went from $0.05 to $0.58.

    Dave, you’re a cunt! Calling people stupid to buy in the stockmarket while you’re doing the exact same thing! Get lost, you’re a freaking moron!

    The past is great and all, but it’s pretty nice right now, in my opinion. It’s nicely landscaped and is in MUCH better shape that when I was a kid in the 1960s and 1970s. It makes a great summer/fall stroll. Best of all, it’s not “hot” or “gentrified” of overly populated by hipsters.
