House of the Day: 388 Stuyvesant Avenue
Wow. This limestone house at 388 Stuyvesant Avenue in Stuyvesant Heights sure is a beauty. The three-family listing, which is currently featured in the Brownstoner Marketplace, has original details out the wazoo–inlaid parquet floors, wainscoting, stained glass windows, etc. The asking price is $1,247,000, definitely on the high side for the area, is hard to…

There is an original wood-burning stove and icebox though. Old school!

M4L, this house has one or more extensions that St. Marks doesn’t have. It is in better overall shape, too. One could just move in. If period detail is your thing, this house is chock full, as you can see. It especially has a lot of stained glass, all in perfect shape, and all really gorgeous. Plus that period perfect kitchen. They also have a modern stove in there too, btw. I’d still take St. Marks over this, though. That house has captured my heart and imagination.
Color me confuzzed…I’m not understanding the floorplan in comparison to their description (on the broker’s site under “Floor and Rooms.”) Can anyone help me out?
DIBS, if they want to sell it for 800k, they know where/how to reach me.
Excuse me while I take a moment to wipe off the drool! This house is simply stunning. It would be a winner no matter the location. But in one of the finest areas of Bed Stuy, near the subway and shopping? My take is that 1.2M is at least a credible starting point for the ask. As for Ishtar and MM — move over ’cause I’m joining the weeping choir!
Come on, m4l, with those two “8s” in the house number how could a Chinaman go wrong!!!!!!
>Beautiful…also far nicer than the two limestones that sold at peak $1.1 MM+ prices in 2008 (Babs bought one).
Not this babs, though I wish I could have!
This has to be one of the most lavish, large, and best preserved houses in Bed Stuy. Possibly the best.
Maybe there will be a bidding war between M4L and Barbara Corcoran?
Wow- beautiful house! Definitely on a par with the St. mark’s mansion but in much better shape. I really hope the owner gets that price but sadly I don’t think they will.
I’m actually a little shocked it’s for sale. I hope all is well with the owner.
