This one-bedroom condo at 110 Livingston Street hit the market last week for $729,000 and was trimmed to $714,000 this week; according to StreetEasy, the 893-square-foot unit was initially purchased from the sponsor two years ago for $545,000. This place has a great layout and personally we really like the kitchen finishes as well. Hard to see how it fetches $800 a foot now when it barely cleared $600 a foot back in the heyday.

  1. What I still do not get is why anyone would want to spend that much money with the kitchen effectively one wall – and the focal point — of the living room. These rooms are not large enough for a real dining table and any kind of normal living space. Only for people who really do not cook.

  2. “@moneyfornothing: a million dollars isn’t exactly a lot of money these days.”

    jason liu, if you’re serious, and I’m not sure you are, I imagine at least 95% of Americans would disagree with you on that. Outside of New York, it is still a huge amount to most people. Have you seen the kid of home you can get in other cities and towns for $1MM?

  3. “But seriously, 800 a SF to be just outside of Downtown Brooklyn, not even the sweet spot of the Heights.”

    MoneyForNothing, I’m with you on that.

    Heather, while the building is rock solid and beautiful, as I’m sure the apartments are too, to me the location is a total deal breaker. This building is at a busy and ugly intersection with nothing in the immediate vicinity. This to me is not Brooklyn Heights; I don’t consider anything east of Court as being part of Brooklyn Heights.

  4. Wait a second….$714,000 for a one bedroom condo?!?! Am I missing something here? I’m sure its a nice place, maybe even a full step above your average Brooklyn 1 BR. And I’m sure being in a high end condo & having a Viking range warrants some level of price premium…but $714 grand for a freakin’ 1BR in this market????? Insane.

  5. let’s say this together:

    THREE-QUARTERS OF A FRIGGIN MILLION DOLLARS FOR A 900 SQUARE FOOT ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT!!

    I forgot though, when you move to New York, 3/4 of a Million Dollars is only seven hundred and fifty thousand.

  6. In 110 Livingston’s defense, those are some really freaking nice apartments. On the other hand, can’t you get a 2-bedroom in Hanson Place for that same price? (I haven’t seen the Hanson Place apts, but are they less nice than this?)

    I am still drooling over my friend’s place at 110 Livingston. It felt prewar in this really nice way except everything was new. And it was huge, although I hate those island kitchen things.

    But, yeah, it seems like $600K would be an optimistic price in this market. At the end of the day, it is still a one-bedroom apartment.

    Just a really, really nice one.
