322 Hicks Street hasn’t won a lot of fans for its exterior design, but this FSBO listing on the Brownstoner Marketplace reveals that the inside is actually quite nice in a non-historic way. In particular, the wall of windows in the living/dining area combined with the terrace creates a very nice open feeling. The three-bedroom also has a very low common charge of $761 a month, something that should help justify the $1,699,000 asking price (over $1,000 a foot). Thoughts?

  1. “quite nice in a non-historic way”

    Ha, that sounds like “pretty in a kind of homely way” or something……

    Wall of window does look nice. Ceilings feel low, though.

    Yes, I wish the Marketplace had floor plans, especially when it’s the only listing like this one. Is that a tricky thing to add? IF you do, for limited people like me, please please have it open in a separate pop up so that I can see photo and the floor plan at once? OK? Thanks.

    (dandelion, square footage is there — 1600, so it’s a pretty typical per foot Brooklyn Heights price. Plus, very low maintenance for BH.)

  2. It’s a $1.6 million apt and it’s still got that cheesy over head builder square light.

    Recent re-sale make this price a possibility.

  3. Without a floorplan or square footage, it’s impossible to judge. Nice windows, lousy view. The owners should have at least taken photographs on a sunny day.

  4. Biff, you’re forgetting the number one selling point, which was omitted from the listing: Montero’s proximity. Stumbling distance even!

  5. Hicks and State Street is “prime Brooklyn Heights location”??? That statement would make even a Corcoran broker blush.

    Other than that, decent enough place that’s only overpriced by a few hundred thousand dollars.
