Schloss Connelly In Contract
Several readers have written over the last couple of days to draw our attention to the fact that 17 Prospect Park West, the 5,200-square-foot immaculate mansion owned by the actors Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany, is listed on the Sotheby’s website as being under contract. That, in itself, is no huge surprise—it’s gotta be one…
Several readers have written over the last couple of days to draw our attention to the fact that 17 Prospect Park West, the 5,200-square-foot immaculate mansion owned by the actors Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany, is listed on the Sotheby’s website as being under contract. That, in itself, is no huge surprise—it’s gotta be one of the nicest houses in the borough. The bigger question is what the contract price was. One of the tipsters said she’d heard that it went for the asking price of $8,500,000. Any little birdies know the scoop?

According to the lawyer who represented the buyers, the closing already took place and yes it went for asking.
The prices in Park Slope are downright shocking. I agree, 1:00!
Have to admit though…I do think it’s probably one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in all of NYC.
oil is at 142, who the hell wants all that space to heat. even for a rich person the heat bills next winter are gonna kill us all.
11:51: I loved the Prospect Place house. I went to the open house and while it did need a lot of work, it was full of gorgeous detail and still in its original single family layout. I would have loved to keep it as a one family- for my family : ) Guess I’m not the only one! 10 alternatives- whew! Would also love to know what it went for…
Odd. I heard a high lesbian power couple bought the place.
Holy shit!!!
A 3 bedroom in Park Slope sold for over 2 million dollars?? And this house for 8.5 million? And those other 2 three bedrooms for 1.4 million earlier this week? and the Prospect Park 5 million whatever..? Where was I when all this happened!!???
“yeah, i think the Montgomery place started at 2.4 and eventually sold for 2.1.”
Started at $2,499,000. Closed for $2,025,000.
Listed as 2,162 ft² or $971 per ft².
12:31…it was SARCASM!
Whenever any thread has someone comment about Park Slope, they are immediately called out for hijacking the thread.
I agree that a broader scope of conversation is perfectly fine, and helpful, even.
Sorry to hear you lost out on that house.
There were two houses on Berkeley Place which we were interested in when the owner died this past year. They had contracts on them within a day and we were really disappointed to have missed them. Especially considering the asking price of 1.1 million and 1 million.
For one of the most prime blocks in Park Slope.
Sigh…
BTW, this thread’s title should be corrected:
“Schloss Connelly” would be the proper way to name it.
