House of the Day: 786 Putnam Avenue
This house at 786 Putnam Avenue is a real charmer. Tons of original detail, including some beautiful parquet floors and a killer staircase. The house is also located in just outside Stuyvesant Heights, the longtime-landmarked section of Bed Stuy with one of the most incredible and well-preserved stock of old houses anywhere.

This house at 786 Putnam Avenue is a real charmer. Tons of original detail, including some beautiful parquet floors and a killer staircase. The house is also located in just outside Stuyvesant Heights, the longtime-landmarked section of Bed Stuy with one of the most incredible and well-preserved stock of old houses anywhere. The house is only three stories, though, so it’ll be interesting to see if it fetches its asking price of $799,000. We bet it’ll get pretty close.

Expert…where are you seeing a floorplan?
oh and for the master bedroom on the Third floor, they should have added a full bathroom, not just a sink!
okay, I’ll stop nitpicking……Love all the details though.
It doesn’t get much better than this in terms of quality for price, folks. No, I don’t really like the kitchen but that’s nitpicking.
It is not in Stuy heights historic district. It’s a 6 minute walk to the A train and there’s a smallish supermarket around the corner on malcolm X. It’s a quiet street.
2,558 sq ft (same as mine) so at $799k that’s $312 psf. Pretty good deal for the architectural detail and all new systems INCLUDING central A/C.
This won’t last.
Compared to that limestone house on Stuy Ave opposite the fulton park sold for low 500k’s, this looks expensive. on it’s own, this is a nice looking house and one would think it could get close to ask. really cant get a good handle on BS prices. The range is really all over the place.
nice looking house though. move-in condition too
While I love the woodwork, I hate that it’s painted blue.
I don’t give flying raccoon, the price range is attainable for normal people…
Floor Plan layout is not so great.
– Why would they label the back room on the parlor floor ‘bedroom’?
– or need a bathroom with a double sinks on the parlor floor?
Odd choice for me.
– Would rather have the kitchen and a small powder room on the parlor floor, and the bedroom on the garden level.
– Or do a garden level rental.
If only I had the down payment…
Not up on Bed Stuy comps but that sure seems like a lot of house for the money. Don’t see a floorplan (?)
I suppose if you need a renter to help carry the mortgage this isn’t for you, but as a single family…
