Condo of the Day: 30 Main Street
While not quite as nice or large as this upper-floor unit at 30 Main Street we featured back in October, this lower-floor two-bedroom (well, one-bedroom plus home office, technically) does have a nice feel to it. And at 1,270-square-feet, the asking price of $969,000 feels pretty reasonable for Dumbo. What do you think? 30 Main…

No way! It only has one exposure and just two windows, plus it’s not even on a high floor. Calling it a 2 BR is a real stretch.
Got to agree with parkedslope, this is NOT a two bedroom. PLEASE Mr. B can you give us some real real estate to blog about? The cc is likely to skyrocket way before the market recovers and the Dumbo fashion is unlikely to sustain itself in the long run. Those yupsters will begin reproducing and look for more infrastructure and being nestled bwtn the two bridges won’t seem so hip after all.
window or no window – what’s the difference? have you bothered to look at the view (out or in) from these windows? this place is overpriced for even 2007. it’s a big 1 bedroom with no open views. saving grace is the low maintenance.
I wouldn’t put my 10 year old kid in there permanently but for a guestroom, office or nursery it looks like it would more than do the trick. Judging by the pictures on Elliman the owner got a huge bookcase, double bed, desk and nightstand in that space. Houseguests would most likely find it more than suitable.
Actually with modern HVAC, those windowless rooms are really nice. Plenty of air but no noise or dust or outside disturbance of any kind. I think a room like that could be great, especially if you like to sleep late some mornings.
I just have to ask Mr B to stop drinking the real estate agent koolaid/smoking their wacky weed & recognize that this is, indeed, a one bedroom.
No window = no way.
Your resolution for 2009: stop parroting broker-speak [aka ‘lies’].
I have visited other lofts with just this sort of office space, and yes, it works great as an office. But unless you’re a vampire, the crypt-feel is overwhelming for a bedroom.
> “1050 sq. ft. seems plenty big to me.”
Agreed, but the point is that it brings the price up to over $920/sf.
1050 sq. ft. seems plenty big to me. It is definitely not small unless you want three bedrooms.
Very nice. A sophisticated apartment for a young(ish) couple. The low maintenance alone makes it worthwhile, but buyers should know that at the time the J-51 tax benefits expire, their monthly maintenance will skyrocket.
