Condo of the Day: 264 Cumberland Street

When the new conversion at 264 Cumberland Street in Fort Greene hit the market last May, the units were priced pretty affordably, which may, in part, explain why there haven’t been a whole lot of price cuts during the dark times of the last couple of months; to be fair, though, the cheapest units on a per square foot basis are those on the ground-floor with large subterranean rec rooms. To date, five of the 13 apartments are spoken for. The remaining ones range in price from $615,000 for a 912-square-foot studio-plus-office to $925,000 for a 1,874-square-foot duplex with outdoor space. And then there’s this space (shown in photos) at the top of the church for $685,000.

yes- there might even be a handy inflammable cross lying around
$600k for a 900 sq ft studio… just talking about this in a VAGUELY approving way is farking disgusting to me.
And a million $$ for a 1-bedroom, 1-1/2 bath apartment… dead jesus on a stick.
What is wrong with you people!? And my “you people” I mean all of you that even contemplate paying this sort of scratch for ANYTHING. Even if these units were “full of character” with lots of details and fancy mouldings and a $3000 kitchen sink. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?
And you wonder why we are in an economic crisis. It’s because of YOU!
Maybe PropJoe would be interested in the top unit. His KKK Grand Wizard hat would fit in with the roof perfectly.
this should go down well with academics and other pointy-heads
with the exception of the top unit being somewhat unique, what’s alluring about the other 2 at those prices? plain interiors. nice exterior, but you live inside, unless you plan on chilling in a lawnchair with a beer across the street admiring your exterior.
My wife and I looked at these when they first went on the market. Probably would have bought one of the spaces with the ground floor rec room but the one we wanted was the first to go to contract. Excellent location, tons of character and a cool vibe are all positives. Wacky layouts in some units are a major negative.
And rob, that is exactly why churches came about to begin with…as a means for the confession of those things that you would do!!!
even tho i am against all buildings not condos being turned into condos i would give anything to live in that. ANYTHING. id even do anything. ANYTHING! i love it

Most of these floorplans seem kind of … cumbersome and overworked? Seems like the interior space of the buildings could’ve been better-used.
