The former ruin and Gothic Revival beauty at 374 Pacific Street that was asking a staggering $7,900,000 is in contract. A deal was reportedly struck for less than $5,950,000, according to the blog BK to the Fullest. About a month ago, the asking price dropped to $6,950,000, said Streeteasy.

The badly deteriorated building was not even a full shell when it sold for $1,335,000 in 2010. The 26-foot-wide, 7,000-square-foot property has been extensively and lavishly rebuilt. If it closes for more than $5,000,000, it will set a record for Boerum Hill.

  1. – If you have a table in the yard, someone sitting at the table is facing the back of the house.
    – Unless you close your eyes when walking back in from the backyard, you see the rear facade.
    But keep arguing that the aesthetic of rear facade doesn’t matter.

  2. You look at the rear facade when you’re in the backyard.
    Would have been nice if the rear parlor facade was full height doors/windows. and a full width balcony off of it, deep enough for seating.
    so many things I would have done differently with this house.
