Condo of the Day: 255 Eastern Parkway, #C16
We’re so bullish about Eastern Parkway in the long-term that we won’t make too much of the fact that this 1,438-square-foot apartment at 255 Eastern Parkway, which sold for $216,313 in 2003, is now on the market for $825,000. To be fair, that’s not a straight-up four-bagger; the three-bedroom place has gotten what appears to…

To be fair, that’s not a straight-up four-bagger; the three-bedroom place has gotten what appears to be a top-notch renovation in the meantime. The only thing we can find to complain about is the choice of kitchen counter top surface. The combined monthly charges are a very reasonable $836. There was an open house yesterday. Anyone go?

nothing beats interconnected bedrooms too z
dave, there’s a rotating secret wall door to the bedrooms immediately past the entry. for extra privacy, of course.
How much would it rent for? $3K? $3500 at the most? I was offered a Turner Towers sublet last year for about $2700… arguably worth more because of the better location.
So, yeah, nice apartment, completely overpriced.
Mr B what is your problem with granite countertops???? You can’t even tell what color they are here. My guess..Uba Tuba Green!!!
What kind of countertops do you have??? Don’t tell me you like Corian
too bad there’s no door into the bedrooms!!!!
thank you cmu, i was sitting here in shock, sputtering at my screen and couldn’t get the words out fast enough.
polemicists comments are revolting. take your thinly veiled bigotry elsewhere.
Ah, yes, Polemecist, RS tenants are obviously sub-human and should be eliminated so that “new residents (read: upper-class whites)” can avail themselves of the “charm, architecture and transportation (which are wasted on the current population).”
Gorgeous apartment, though.
What’s wrong with the countertop, brwns? Radon offgassing?
“Eastern Parkway will still be moderately dangerous because the vast majority of residents in RS buildings. Too many of such tenants have serious antisocial tendencies that bring the hood down.”
God save us from those antisocial working-class folks who can’t afford 825k. Come on, how does RS = dangerous and antisocial?
What’s most impressive to me is that someone snagged this place for 216k just 5 years ago. (and I don’t think asking 825 is out of line; my guess is it will go for 5% less) Sheesh, where was I when that deal went down?
I do like the area, especially when it’s sunny and warm, with the museum, park and gardens all looking their best. In February, not so much. But it’s only about a 20 minute stroll to Park Slope.
