Hope springs eternal. Granted the developer who bought this place in February ’06 has done a masterful job of squeezing every last square inch of usable space out of this four-story brick house on Bergen between Bond and Nevins, but we’d like some of what he was smoking when he set the asking price of $3,900,000 (or $3,600,000, depending on whether you believe the NYT listing or the listing on the Cobble Heights site). This doesn’t seem even remotely likely for this location, especially when every ounce of character has been wrung out of this place, starting with the institutional-feeling garden. If modern’s what you want, why not take the most expensive State Street Town for a million bucks less?
