House of the Day: 275 Adelphi Street
Since 181 Washington Park sold last year for more than $3 million, that’s become the magic number for any homeowner in the area fantasizing about cashing out.

Since 181 Washington Park sold last year for more than $3 million, that’s become the magic number for any homeowner in the area fantasizing about cashing out. Take 275 Adelphi Street, a five-story brownstone just three blocks away. Purchased in 2003 for $1,300,000, the three-family house has had a high-end renovation in the mean-time and is back on the market now for $2,995,000. There are no real nits to pick here. Time to just sit back and let the market do its work.

YUM?? How about YUCH. Is anyone here old enough to know that good taste is not hotel chic? No buyers go on Brownstoner.
Hate to tell you guys that the finishes are not remotely expensive. Vanities are prefab units, glass tiles & unit kitchen look like Ikea and the counters and appliances are fine but far from high end. Lord help you if you are large & have to sit on that toilet squeezed between vanity and shower! Is that even real Carrara (sp for 2:19)
Nice to know the public is so easily pleased. I’ll keep that in mind when I do the remodel on my building.
Oh and btw 10am the only reason I wouldn’t buy this house is we already own one. I think a lot of people here on Brownstoner do own houses or coops. Some of those who are most ardent in defending certain neighborhoods for example, certainly are homeowners. Why would a renter get so furious when someone insults a neighborhood? They don’t have any financial investment in it or in its success and appreciation.
I wish we could afford a fully renovated house in Fort Greene. Love FG. But we bought a smaller place for 1/3 the price in another neighborhood, which we love too.
