Condo of the Day: 584 Pacific Street
The owners of this townhouse triplex have had to scale back their expectations as the market has fallen away from them over the last couple of years. The 1,800-square-foot apartment first hit the market in November of 2007 with Sotheby’s asking $1,895,000; it was reduced to $1,595,000 before being pulled off the market last fall….

Now Brown Harris Stevens has been picked for the relaunch with a spiffy new price tag of $1,200,000. That’s gotta be pretty close to reality, no?

> So does that mean this is building is a 2-unit condo?
If so, then two nails is enough for this coffin.
So does that mean this is building is a 2-unit condo? That’s kind of an unusual set-up, isn’t it? I guess their mechanicals, etc. must all be separate, but negotiating other common items/expenses could get sticky when there’s no “tie-breaker”…
Might the “keyed garden” comment might be referring to a community garden that only allows access to residents in a certain vicinity?
“The disaster that is Atlantic meets Flatbush meets 4th makes a lot of noise that resonates this way”
And asking 1.2 Million smackeroos….Need we say more?
“Though it is across a major intersection from Pathmark, Target and a zillion train lines.”
Exactly why I look to purchase a brownstone in brooklyn for 1.5 million. It’s like the suburbs, but you get to use mass transit!
It seems like a lot of these comments focus on location… this block is actually pretty nice, but maybe I’m a bit biased 😉
Pros:
Across the street (as someone mentioned) across from a gazillion train lines + LIRR, which is nice for a day trip our East.
The block itself is beautifully maintained. Flowers in every single tree bed, sidewalk and house properties are kept very clean.
The “keyed garden” across the street feels like a proper botanic garden when you’re inside. Plus BBQs and gatherings.
Very close to the excellent strip of restaurants on 5th Ave in North Slope.
Quick walk over to Fort Greene.
Parking is good (for Park Slope). Fewer homes on the block means more spaces per resident. (Though it’s much harder to get a spot during ‘business hours.’)
Cons:
Noisy, but not as bad as you would expect -mainly because Pacific & 4th has no light (fewer horns)
Atlantic Yards(?)
That’s about it. You don’t even notice PC Richard & Modell’s after a while. Really, who cares that they are there? Though these two cons are pretty big in my book. I’ve been thinking about moving a couple of blocks in to get a quieter space. The disaster that is Atlantic meets Flatbush meets 4th makes a lot of noise that resonates this way.
I miss the old days when someone would have chimed in ‘Atlantic Yard effect’.
Too bad the U-haul depot down the block closed down. Not the best location, unless you “Gotta Go to Mo’s” for a new baseball glove. Though it is across a major intersection from Pathmark, Target and a zillion train lines.
But this place is in a different school district… kidding.
(I don’t even know where the P.S. boundaries are for schools.)
As zinka noted above, this block is craptacular. I wouldn’t rent on it, never mind drop a million clams to live there.
