Condo of the Day: 430 Clinton Avenue, #4D
We’re liking the feel of this one-bedroom FSBO at 430 Clinton Avenue in Clinton Hill. The clean, modern take on the prewar space is light without sacrificing the charm of the original space. The asking price of $475,000 is quite a bit more than what a one bedroom across the street at the Clinton Hill…

We’re liking the feel of this one-bedroom FSBO at 430 Clinton Avenue in Clinton Hill. The clean, modern take on the prewar space is light without sacrificing the charm of the original space. The asking price of $475,000 is quite a bit more than what a one bedroom across the street at the Clinton Hill Co-ops would cost, but this place has a lot more character and more space; the loftiness of the living area is particularly nice. The asking price represents a premium of about less than 10 percent over what the current owners paid for the place back in the summer of 2007. Think they’ll get it?

As a matter of fact i was in Clinton Hill yesterday, i know the hood over there, and i’m sorry i don’t think it’s a great hood at all… I don’t feel worry when i walk around ’cause i’m a big guy but all my friends who have been mugged in the street in Brooklyn, 6 out of 8 were mugged or robbed around the Fort green/Clinton hill area… Read the papers fellas, it’s all over the place…
You can offer 400K, but I firmly believe this will be “worth” 300-350K this time next year.
11217–i was unaware of the crimes you describe so I certainly wouldn’t disagree with you that mugging is “dodgy”. I did live 7 years a block from that location and never had a problem. I am sorry to hear about your friends and certainly don’t mean to downplay their situations. Its just not my personal experience with the neighborhood. When someone says a neighborhood that has no projects at all is “dodgy” because of the “massive projects” in it I have to respond.
“11217–having looked at that listing I don’t know that I would necessarily choose that apt over this one.”
I was simply giving an example. If you ask 95% of most buyers in the market for a 500K 1 bedroom, I do think they’d choose the West Village over Clinton Hill.
offer $400K. deal.
Wasder,
I don’t think “dodgy” is code for anything at all.
And I agree with stringer. As of this past weekend, I’ve now had THREE friends mugged at gun or knife point in Clinton Hill.
2 of the 3 ON CLINTON AVENUE!
That’s certainly can be described as dodgy by some.
Of course these things happen everywhere all over the city, but they do seem to happen more frequently here.
Can you admit that at least?

stringer sounds like cornerbodega’s numb stepsister. Probably never even been to the neighborhood.
And who is buying a one bedroom to raise a family in anyway stringer?
