The asking price on the four-story, two-family brownstone at 165 6th Avenue in Park Slope was just reduced by $100,000 only a week after being listed for $2,599,000. (Tough timing, what with the whole sub-prime crisis and all.) While some people might prefer to be on a side street, this is a lovely stretch of 6th Avenue and a beauty of a house. All the original molding and woodwork appears to be in good shape (though we’re not so sure those parlor floors are original) and the owners have done a good job of getting it into sales form. It’s hard to say what the market-clearing price is these days, but it looks like a better bang for the buck to us than yesterday’s house at 86 Garfield Place. Agree?
