Condos of the Day: 335 Warren Street
The Scarano designed condos at 335 Warren Street in Boerum Hill aren’t exactly flying off the shelf.

The Scarano designed condos at 335 Warren Street in Boerum Hill aren’t exactly flying off the shelf. When we took a look in November, Brown Harris Stevens had taken over for Two Trees after six months or so; Brooklyn Heights Real Estate currently has the reins, and as best we can tell, at least five of the eight units are available. The weird thing is that Property Shark shows that two of the five are resales. Current prices range from $585,000 to $975,000.

No worries, I love a good tangent.
TownhouseLady, my pleasure. It’s a wonderful guidebook. Being the wannabe adventurer I am, the first few tours I’ve done were to the areas often mentioned here that I was the least familiar with. I’ve been absolutely amazed at the diversity of neighborhoods and the remarkable homes, public and commercial buildings, activities, sites, landmarks, etc. featured. I can’t wait to see more. It really makes one appreciate what an incredible place Brooklyn is. Ok, sorry all for the diversion…
Thanks for sharing the link Biff, great resource.
bayridgegirl, I actually did check out the places you referenced, but you know me, I just hate to bore everyone with my sidebar discussions! Anyway, I did the walk up the stairs at 76th and Colonial, past the gorgeous homes, right on Ridge, right on 80th and left on Narrows (another wonderful street) down to the Gingerbread House. The tour was from this book – no I don’t get royalties despite frequently mentioning it – but this link doesn’t include all the pages, such as the one talking about the mansions on 76th.

I never really liked this neighborhood. Boring Hill…I’m sure I’m not the first to say that.
Biff – welcome to my hood. That’s a spectacular house. The property alone is amazing. There are still some great old houses. When I’m rich and famous, I want to live in the house on 76th (btwn ridge & colional), built by the founder of Blue Cross in the 1890’s, Gothic Revival Style – check it out next time you’re there. Last house before the stairs.
If you go to:

(last photo on the right). Picture doesn’t do it justice. The best way to see the house is in the winter (no leaves on the trees). Go to colional Road, between 76th and walk toward 77th street. Look up at house on hill. Yes it takes up the entire block.
There’s another great house right across the street. Heck, that entire block is really nice.
Next time, you want to come to Bay Ridge, let me know. Will give you a list of houses to check out.
Back to the Condo!
Sell! Mortimer! Sell!
Being less than a block from the projects probably doesn’t help much either.
The website isn’t very good at all(few pictures, no floorplans, no details on fixtures)
I’m enjoying the touches of blue tape on the toilet (that’s not a TOTO, is it?) and the stairs and wondering if it’s leftover pieces from the roll used on the crown moldings on the Brooklyn Heights house featured a few weeks ago.
Off topic – bayridgegirl, I was in your hood yesterday enjoying the park and admiring some wonderful homes. I also saw the “Gingerbread House”, which I’ve decided I want to live in one day when I grow up.
There aren’t any floor plans or am I just not seeing them??
