We love this building and we’ve been known to dig us some WIndsor Terrace, but we also know a stretch when we see one. This is a nice-sized and well-appointed prewar one bedroom (900 square feet according to the FSBO listing) but we have a hard time seeing how a buyer’s going to pay the asking price of $445,000 for it. Especially when another one bedroom in the building sold earlier this year for $330,000. Granted, it was reportedly only 700 square feet. Any Windsor Terraceans out there care to weigh in on the chances of this fetching more than $400,000?

I honestly don’t think someone buying this apartment at this price would raise kids to school age here as a one bedroom…am I wrong? It really doesn’t matter which school it is zoned for then.
I live in this building, in the 700 sq ft model. The sponsors put a recently vacated apt., also 700 sq. ft., on sale for $415K. They’ll probably get it, or close to it, too.
The equivalent in PS would be more like 600k.
My math puts it at right about 775sf. The “fully renovated” bathroom is just plug ugly. And what the hell was with the terrible music on the website that you can’t turn off?
Park Slope prices without Park Slope amenities.
Huh? When I checked the square footage on their website it comes out close to 900sf. The equation is Length x Width = Area.
Based on their own measurements, that apartment clocks in under 650 SF. You can get that space for the same money in the Slope.
Sorry guests didn’t mean to offend, really! Just think the building (and I think it is also very pretty) is not close to a grocery store (you’d have to walk down the stairs or around to get to Keyfood). As for PS154 yes I’ve heard it is good. I like my zoned school PS230 too. Anyway, not trying to ‘promote’ anything simply stating my opinion like everyone else here but happen to have an identity b/c I signed in… next time I’ll post under guest.
I think the price seems about right — I know the building and it is really beautiful. From the photos the apartment seems very spacious and light. As for Seeley being dead – maybe kensingtonbrooklyn should take another walk around the neighborhood — it’s a perfect location: near the park, near the subway and Crossroads, near Keyfood and the stores on PPW. The real plus (and why I personally would never leave WT for Kensington) is that building is zoned for PS 154.
