House of the Day: A New Era In The Slope?

This North Sloper looks like a sign of the times to us. As far as we can tell, this would have been asking north of $2 million just a few months ago. Now, at $1.795 million, the location and historic integrity of the building make this pretty attractive, we think. Perhaps there’s a bit of a discount for the fact that it’s a three-family–most buyers in the North Slope these days probably want a one- or two-family. In addition to the cost the reconfigure, the listing admits that the house needs a tune-up in places. Personally, we’d start by plastering over that brick wall in the bedroom! Regardless, we suspect this will attract a buyer quite quickly at this price. It makes us wonder: If this house is $1.8 in the prime Slope, what would it be in Fort Greene?
