House of the Day: 931 Jefferson Avenue

Here’s a two-family at 931 Jefferson Avenue in Bed Stuy with details but in need of work, according to the listing. The four photos don’t reveal much, but the description states the house has original doors, plaster medallions with wedding cake details, the original wainscoting, the original staircase, one fireplace mantel, and the original floors (which appear to be pine). On the other hand, there is the matter of the exterior, whose original brick and tin have been covered in Formstone. There is no floor plan, so it’s not clear if this was originally a one-family or a two. It’s in the eastern part of Bed Stuy, close to the Halsey J and Saratoga Park. What do you think of it for $699,000?
