The brownstone condo conversion at 40 Sterling Place in Park Slope somehow misses the mark for us in terms of style (it seems caught between modern and traditional, without really nailing either one), but the three apartments do seem to offer some nice clean, relatively open spaces (for a brownstone) for about $750 a foot, which is not a stretch in this part of town. The unit on the second floor has already been snapped up, but the bottom duplex (which has the garden) is available for $1,300,000, as is the top-floor (plus roofdeck) apartment for $1,050,000. Anyone checked these out yet? Update: As one commenter (ever so politely) points out, this is a new construction project, something one might be forgiven for not picking up on based on the purposefully misleading facade photo on the listing (which has now been moved to the jump). Luckily we were able to get our hands on a more representative photo in the last few minutes (above) which shows that the facade, like the interior, falls into that chasm of bad taste that lies somewhere between old-school and modern.
