House of the Day: 54 Irving Place
While not on Clinton Hill's most desirable block, 54 Irving Place, at $1,150,000, might provide a nice entry point into the area for the right buyer. It looks like the original details are basically intact. The lack of bathroom and kitchen photos along with mentions of "TLC" in the listing suggest there's a good bit of work to be done. We're also not convinced that the broker who posted this ad is the actual listing broker, as there is mention of additional brokers having to collect their fees from their buyer. When we included it as an Open House Pick a year ago, the broker was the web-site-less R. J. Chappell Realty.

This is Clinton Hill technically but it feels a lot more like Bed Stuy

I can get "entry" into Clinton Hill for just $1.15M? Wow! No thanks.

Yes, 1:53. In fact, it looks worse than most of the decent Bed Stuy blocks.

What is that big mass (building) across the street? A project?
and brownstoner, your comments are not

How do those ugly new floors translate to intact original details?
Posted by: guest at April 17, 2008 2:11 PM
that will sit for a while. If they really want to sell it it will be for under a million

How do you get a fee from the buyer?
Posted by: guest at April 17, 2008 2:31 PM
Why do you think teh floors are ugly, 2:11? These have been recently sanded and finished. They look in great shape.
I agree 2:24, I think this will go for just under $1 million.

If you haven't been able to unload a house in over a year, jacking up the price by $55k is - shall we say - an interesting tactic.

I think the house is fine across the street is a school. If you think this is to much maybe you should keep renting. I dont live in CH but would like to.

Re making posts stick -- patience, my dear friends. Post once. Then check back in three minutes. If it isn't there, click refresh. If it still isn't there, which is highly unlikely, then post again. I find all my posts stick, eventually. As Mr. B says:
After submitting a comment it may take several minutes to appear. Please only submit your comment once.

I saw this house last week. It is decent shape. There is new very inexpensive Home Depot style kitchen in it, but I would have to take it out and start over.
A house a couple doors south, #58, is also for sale. It has much nicer kitchen renovations, one I could live with. It has been renovated, but not toooo much. The yard is enormous.
