I am the broker for the property. It was essential to cut the price given the amount of work that needs to be done to renovate and restore the property. 1M is way under what it will take to do the work. Its closer to 2M+. Its one of the most magnificent houses I've seen in my years in Real Estate. Although its difficult to determine the exact square footage we estimate its approx 8200 sq ft. Total gut reno, everything and I mean everything needs to be done.It does have quite a bit of salvageable detail really incredible. The facade and roof alone will eat up a good portion of the $$. I have done some research and have found the house because of its historic status would most likely qualify for a special loan from Landmark Conservancy for the roof and facade work that will help alot. Its impossible to take pictures of the interior of the house. I've followed this on Brownstoner for a while now and thought I would weigh in and give you a little more information on the house. There is one room that is almost completely intact a library complete with mahogany ceiling and paneling. Its an amazing room with a beautiful bay window. There is an extension a bit strange only 8ft wide by 25 ft deep I think it could be removed still leaving plenty of space there is an elevator in the extension. The English basement has 9 ft ceilings and there is an attic with 8 ft ceilings A frame. Happy to talk about it if anyone wants to, I just love the house and am hoping to sell it to someone who won't chop it up and will restore it to its former glory!!!
