219 Washington Finally Sells…For 40 Percent Off Peak Ask

After two and a half years on the market, the charming but clearly overpriced brownstone at 219 Washington Avenue finally sold the week before Christmas for $1,655,000. At one point in February, its asking price went as high as $2,835,000. When we featured it as a House of the Day in July of last year 2008 when it was asking $2,495,000, we had this to say: “Seems to us that you gotta have a fifth story to get this price on Washington Avenue in this market, but we could be wrong.” In this case we weren’t.
