Sales have recently started on this converted Carroll Gardens brownstone, and although the listings promise old world charm with all the modern conveniences, the asking prices seem a little dear. The building’s biggest space, a 2,000-square-foot duplex, is going for $1.8 million, or $900 a foot, while the three smaller units are both asking around $1,000 a foot. We asked the broker selling the condos what buildings they looked to for comps, and she pointed to 240 Carroll Street, a conversion that did brisk business about a year ago—and was priced a heck of a lot cheaper (units there topped out at $800 a foot). The 177 Union listings don’t include interior shots, so it’s hard to gauge whether top-shelf renovations back up the lofty, new construction-esque prices. Think there’s a shot these’ll sell anywhere close to asking?
