A peek at DOB filings suggests it will consist of five units. Brooklyn Properties will have the listing, but there’s nothing on its website yet. Anyone know anything else? GMAP P*Shark DOB
It took a long time but it was worth it – the apartments are beautiful and well constructed. they replaced all systems – evidently there wasn’t much historic detail to work with, so it’s sleek and modern inside now. really lovely. i want the top floor apt with the roof deck!
they have actually been working on the renovation for a few years, one of the slowest “construction” sites i have ever witnessed
OK here is the legal question. Hal Lehrman one of the owners of Brooklyn Properties is actually one of the undisclosed sellers (sponsors) does that entitle Brooklyn Properties to legally make a commission?
I agree, Guest 8:56. You should buy the place and move your single family right on in.
All snarkiness aside, you could say the same thing about 90 percent of the brownstones in brooklyn. Almost all of them have been perverted into apartments at this point. On this one, most likely the place had deteriorated too much and/or lost too much detail for a single-family-home buyer to want it.
Shame to chop us a nice grand old single family mansion into tiny boxes.
Oops, they *are* two bedrooms, I was confusing with that S. Oxford Street conversion which I saw around the same time. I liked this one better out of the two–it seemed like a much nicer job.
I saw these months ago with a BP broker–to my uninformed eye they looked gorgeous but at the time were asking for 750K for a one bedroom which seemed ridiculous even then. Curious to see what they’ll be listed for now.
all 2 bedrooms, one per floor. garden level has a basement play room. interior is all new, no real original detail except maybe in the stairwell. been inside.
I think they should have 3 units instead of 5.
