House of the Day: 87 St. Mark’s Avenue

This house was an Open House Pick back in mid-May and despite not selling yet has held its ground on the $1.6 million asking price. This makes sense to us. Although the 4-story brownstone is technically on the Prospect Heights side of Flatbush, the condition and level of detail make it worth the price, we think. Moreover, the house is 21 feet wide and on an extra-deep lot. So, overall, we think the sellers are right to hold their ground on price. This listing also provides an interesting context for thinking about the gut rehab candidate at 34 St. Mark’s Avenue which is currently asking $1.1 million. Another twist: Both properties are being marketed by Corcoran.
