A Bedford-Stuyvesant home that was featured in Spike Lee’s movie “Crooklyn” has sold for $1.8 million in an all-cash deal, Brownstoner reported. 

The three-family townhouse, located at 7 Arlington Place between Macon and Halsey streets, went for $500,000 over the $1.3 million price. It was listed last week with Jerry Minsky and Shaira Brereton of Douglas Elliman, according to StreetEasy. The property was designed by George Chappell in the Renaissance Revival style, and featured as the family home in the 1994 movie.

If the sale closes at that price, it would be the second-highest in the neighborhood, bested only by a $2.2 million purchase at 254 Gates Avenue earlier this year, according to Brownstoner. [Brownstoner]Hiten Samtani
