House of the Day: South Slope Bay Front

south sloper
This latest offering from Warren Lewis is certainly attractive enough, with a bay front brownstone facade and lots of original wood detail and parquet floors. We're wondering, though, whether $1.99 million is a little steep for three stories in the South Slope. It's doubtful that each floor is much bigger than about 800 square feet, which would put the valuation at around $500 $800 a foot (whoops!). The yard is plenty big enough but the photo shows that it needs some work--and that the views are of apartment-style buildings, not family-owned brownstones. The house does get bonus points for having the funkiest game room we've seen this week! Maybe are Slope sleuths can figure out more precisely where this is and get us some comps.
Addendum: Holy Moly, have we been blocked by Warren Lewis? It's listing #4601 for $1.99 million. Here's the link if you want to paste it into your browser:

It's listed at 1.9MM on Warren lewis site.

make that $1.99 - getting pricier as we talk - better make an offer quick.

My guess for location is 12th or 13th street, Park Block. Nice blocks, but $2M? Seems steep to me.

looks a little shabby to me by the photo's, and not great photo's either.

Looks like the block of 13th Street I lived on in the early '70s. Somewhat shabby then, much better now, but $1.99 million??

Prospect Lefferts, where I've lived for the last 30 years, is a MUCH better value at 1/2 the price.

it's on 11th st. between 8th and the park. it's a gorgeous block, but i've seen the house and it's no great shakes. it needs a ton of cosmetic work and it's not very big. i think 1.99 is way too high for the condition/amount of space.
