If you're looking for a house with old world charm and some rental apartments to help pay your mortgage, take a look at 1265 Bergen St. in Crown Heights. The three family is legitimately located in the Crown Heights North Historic District, and is listed for $1,895,000.
Part of a row of Renaissance Revival-style, turn-of-the-century townhomes designed by architect John J. Magilligan, the building has original inlaid hardwood floors, detailed fretwork and millwork, fireplace mantels with ceramic tile, and pocket doors, as well as the original stoop, railings, and cornice.
