69-Willow-Street-120710.jpg
This new listing at 69 Willow Street (which Curbed highlighted over the weekend) will separate the men from the boys. The five-story townhouse has 5,800 square feet of space, including doctor’s office on the ground floor and extra-deep living quarters on the two floors above that. The property appears to be in very good shape (though we wish there were a few more photos!) and not lacking in the architectural detail department. But paupers need not apply: The asking price on the baby is $5,750,000, which comes out to almost exactly $1,000 per foot.

  1. it is funny how some of these posters, bored agents I’m sure, have very little familiarity with Brooklyn Heights.
    Get a clue, there is NO bad part of Willow Street.
    And no, these houses are not bought by riff-raff.
    You guys should stick to selling your decrepit former SRO’s and crackhouses in outer slobovia.
    Keep telling the youngsters too stupid to know that Bushwick or Bed-Stuy or God-knows-where is the “up and coming” community inhabited by warm and sensitive neighbors.

  2. The view out the front is a JH apratment building and also the Truman Capote house, which is currently for sale for $18 million. The place next door sold not too long ago for just about $8 million, so the price of this place isnt too bad… Considering this is prime Heights…

  3. So… in the $5+ million territory you’re still concerned about “convert the ground floor to a separate apartment for income”?!??!?!?

    I didn’t notice that before. James and Leslie are not just lazy, they don’t understand the prospective clients! Awesome combination.

  4. Minard, is there a less attractive stretch on Willow? I am being serious — the view out the front from this house is dismal.

    Although I agree, this is hardly riff-raffish territory. Just not MOTU level.

  5. Not a Witness house – owned by a prominent area psychiatrist (office on garden level) until transferred to an LLC in October. Tax class is one family with store or office (good luck with that garden apartment); no C of O. Also, no mortgage!
