Co-op of the Day: 566 Prospect Place

Like last Wednesday’s House of the Day, the sales effort of this two-bedroom co-op on Prospect Place just over the border into Crown Heights could benefit from a more neutral paint job. (Lest readers get the wrong impression, we like the use of color and have painted a number of rooms in our own house strong colors, but when one color dominates the entire mood of a property you’re trying to sell, it’s very risky.) The owner has recently done a clean-looking reno and while there are plenty of things we could nit-pick about, our sense is that $419,000 is a reasonable price to be asking for a two bedroom that needs no work, especially when you include the apartment’s kicker exclusive roof rights above the apartment. Can anyone comment on the building, a 15,000-square-foot, 20-unit co-op? There was an open house yesterday. Did anyone make it?
