Our Turner Towers love-fest last week prompted one reader to bring our attention to another, larger listing in the grand old co-op. This seventh-floor three-bedroom weighs in at a whopping 1,800 square feet and has a large dining and three bedrooms to boot. Downsides? The kitchen and bath “need work.” The price tag for this pre-warry goodness? $1,100,000. Any recent comps in the building for this? We couldn’t find anything relevant on Property Shark.

  1. I always like Turner Towers on paper but less so in person. I think it’s because the rooms all feel too long and narrow (what a difference it would be if the ceilings were a bit higher) and because even these front apartments have too many dark rooms with interior-facing windows.

  2. This is a fancy-pants modern apartment, but not one that I like. The space would be much better spent massing the dining/living/hall/kitchen in one area with windows all around. Instead there are overly large bedrooms. It’s typical of the era though.

  3. sam–you right that that is a super cool floor plan. But still paying as much for this apt as you can get a whole house for in many brownstone neighborhoods (and still having 1500 monthly maintenance) just doesn’t add up.

  4. CW- your cons re: nabe lacking stores, restaurants is way off. It’s got all of PH’s Vanderbilt and Flatbush businesses, is right across the street from Farmer’s Market and park (your “etc”) and is less than 10 minutes from 7th Ave. in Park Slope.
