Corcoran must have used an entire case of Pledge shining up the woodwork for the photos of 325 East 17th Street. The Beverley Square East Victorian has lots of original woodwork and inherent charm but the renovation (which must be pretty recent) feels a little overdone to us in places (a 48-inch commercial stove?) and lacking in taste in others (what’s up with that fence). It’s like the owner is trying to force an attractive middle-class house and put it on steroids in the hopes of selling it for top dollar. It’ll be interest to see how the asking price of $1,695,000 goes over. This is east of the tracks, after all, a far cry from Westminster or Argyle Road when it comes to property values. There was an open house yesterday—did anyone check it out?
