Co-op of the Day: 193 Clinton Avenue
This 11th-floor one bedroom at the Clinton Hill Co-ops is the most “renovated” apartment we’ve seen in the complex, and has the price tag to match. One bedrooms in this group of buildings typically sell in the low- to mid-$300,000s (like this place, for example), though we were able to find one example that ticked…
This 11th-floor one bedroom at the Clinton Hill Co-ops is the most “renovated” apartment we’ve seen in the complex, and has the price tag to match. One bedrooms in this group of buildings typically sell in the low- to mid-$300,000s (like this place, for example), though we were able to find one example that ticked over the $400,000 level last year. This place has new dark-stained floors, high-end appliances and even name-brand tiles in the renovated bathroom. And great views, of course. The price: $409,000. Think it’ll fly?

Although I ended up buying in Park Slope, I still wonder whether I would have been better off purchasing in the Clinton Hill co-op area for about $75k-$100k less and slightly more room. Ultimately, I couldn’t get over the lack of mass transit options. I still think it’s a great area though.
@Kris… a Corcoran broker lives in one of the buildings over there, so I’m not surprised that prices keep inching upwards in these coops when everywhere else they are inching down.
I love the layouts of these apartments but can’t justify the super high maintenance for such few amenities. Maintenance for the true 2-beds is inching towards $900 a month.
someone dropped a lot of coin; I know that range is $5,000+ and that tile is made by Heath Ceramics (marketed here under Ann Sacks) out in Sausalito and starts at $55/sq.-ft.
Not loving that bathroom at all.
these were built in the mid 1940’s. so it’s not pre-war. it’s kind of “during war”.
and they aren’t landmarked or in the historic district. but close
Propertyshark and Streeteasy say these were built in 1943 and 1944.
Does that make them War buildings?
Prewar landmark? I understand embellishing the truth but that’s an all out lie. Or have they change prewar to mean built before the war in Iraq?
I would not want to be the owner of the most expensive comp in the building … especially not these days
I dunno. Looks pretty good to me, especially the kitchen. That Ann Sacks stuff is pretty spendy. I think the range is in that position so they could vent it to the outside without having to run a soffit for the duct.
I’d much rather live here than in some crappy new condo for the same price.
The economics of this reno are a bit odd. I’m guessing they dropped nearly 100k, so if unrenovated ones were going for 325-360 pre-crash, then they aren’t going to come close to making back their investment.
