Condo of the Day: 25 8th Avenue, 3rd Floor
How awesome is this condo at the Montauk Club in Park Slope? The full-floor unit clocks in at a whopping 4,200 square feet and has beaucoup original details. The location’s hard to beat for convenience and proximity to the park as well. This kind of mac daddy living don’t come cheap though: The asking price…

The location’s hard to beat for convenience and proximity to the park as well. This kind of mac daddy living don’t come cheap though: The asking price is $5,250,000 and the monthly costs come in at just north of $4,500. Amazing!

OH NO…WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO THIS PLACE??? Criminals! I Saw this before the reno. It WAS sick – now it’s diseased. They remade it into a Room and Board showroom (with a kitchen straight outta THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF…). Look at the floor plan – a gaggle of (given the unused square footage) microscopic bedrooms without access to bathrooms and then THREE CONTIGUOUS BATHROOMS ala Penn Station? Huh? Either this owner also hates what they’ve done or the nightmare of living in a mixed-use building (offices in the basement with all kinds of random traffic) and being directly above a raucous, deafening club party room has driven yet another owner (I’ve seen it 3x now) to sell. Bet they’d take a lot less than asking – given the dirty windows in the listing, the derelict look of the building exterior and the lame photos, smells like “GET US OUT OF HERE ASAP” was their brief to the broker… The new scaffolding will help! Yikes.
This was a 1990’s or early 200’s conversions from a club. Although their may have been guest rooms on this floor, as far as i know this wasn’t originally an apartment. I’d guess that the access to the Master Bedroom through banks of closets in the dressing room was done so as a way to maximize storage. The secondary door to the small bedroom was probably set up for nursery access.
As far as the re tax, I’m glad someone else in the neighborhood is bearing the weight. Most properties developed before the 80’s seem to be assessed at too low a rate in comparison.
I’m too lazy to look it up, but wasn’t this for sale like 5 years ago for under 2 million?
And why do I know that? Sometimes I worry. Surely there must be more useful information that my brain could have been remembering instead.
Living like a KING!
no kidding. this place was a condo-of-the-day on b’stoner back in ’09 and on the wsj http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB124724664337924367#eos it was stunning.DEF needed a new kitchen etc but fn compare and contrast: i’ve looked at these reno pictures several times now and wish the current owners could be charged for the aesthetic crime they commissioned on this former show place
Yep, gonna have to agree there. You would think that some of that $2,987.82 in monthly common charges could go towards some maintenance of the grounds. And what’s with the $1,528.00 per month in real estate taxes? Cool place, but the price seems overly ambitious.
