New Vintage-Style Townhouses for Sale

One of the new townhouses at 47-49 Irving Place, between Fulton Street and Gates Avenue, is on the market for the sweet sum of $2,199,000. The building is divided into two separate townhouses, and each townhouse has an upper triplex apartment over a lower duplex. The sale is for No. 49. Features of the home, as outlined in the listing, include Juliet balconies, custom-built wood cabinetry, a private terrace for the master bedroom, a deck, walnut herringbone flooring, and a private backyard for the garden apartment. We checked up on this construction site over the summer, when the building did not yet have its facade. Now, it looks just about done. There’s no word on when the building will actually be ready for residency; the listing simply states “coming soon.” What do you make of the price for a new development in the area? And how do you like the final product, aesthetically?
