This gorgeous house at 52 Midwood Street is a bit of a hot potato. The property changed hands in 2004 for $540,000 and then again in 2005 for $775,000. It looks like the owner took out a second mortgage for $200,000 three months after buying it — perhaps to get the house into the beautiful shape it’s now in. And beautiful it is. Our first impression is that this isn’t the work of an amateur. Both the interior decoration and even the photographs are totally pro. (Look at those flowers in bathroom window!) We’d love to hear from those of you who hit the open house on Sunday. Did the real thing match the photos? Is $1,525,000 achievable for a brownstone in PLG right now?
