We’re digging this three-bedroom co-op at 433 3rd Street in Park Slope. Other than the fact that it only has one bathroom, the co-op has a lot going for it: Lots of original details (plaster ceiling moldings, french doors, etc.), lots of windows and PS 321 to boot. The maintenance is just $800, but the asking price is $895,000. How does that strike you?

  1. not going to widget this one. looks like great wide angle pics, so maybe 900sf? seriously, you need square footage people, also, is it the basement or the penthouse? and meh to the no cats, however, pried right this is a cure nabe and you get “the school” (whatever that means). but i wont price it flying blind.

  2. I think that floorplan looks fine — the two smaller rooms would be for kids and who cares about kids, right?

    Funny thing when I paged thru the pics, I saw kids room, bigger kids room and kids room used as an office. Where are the parents? I guess they’re in the loft? Weird.

  3. De Lepp, there were 8 of us growing up with one bathroom — it presented its am challenges but we managed…. I like this place; I am not sure of the price, but maintenance is good. I like the windows, the layout, the high ceilings and the floors. It needs a new kitchen and could use a few built ins but I think it is a nice apartment.

    As someone who grew up sharing the loo with 5 other people one loo wouldn’t be a deal breaker.

    seriously! everyone thinks their poo mist is special and unique these days. newsflash: it’s not!

  5. Betancourt calls this apartment “charming,” the standard real estate parlance for “small.” Maybe 1,000 square feet? The pictures on the site are taken with a wide angle lens; it would be interesting to know how cramped the rooms really are. Still a nice looking apartment, however.

  6. Good find, DitmasSnark. Don’t know what it went for, but it was listed at 879 and described as mint. This place isn’t and they’re asking more. Between the listings yesterday and this one today, I suspect Brooklyn brokers think they can will the market back simply by asking ridiculous prices. I’ve written this before, but what about asking what the place is worth, with the expectation that a biding war might ensue?

  7. True, these properties tend to have only one bathroom, but the real problem is that the bdrms are mighty tiny and the common space is small too. This is probably why there is no floor plan. It will go for 750.
