G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S. This duplex at 22 8th Avenue in Park Slope, which combines the parlor and garden floors of the massive brownstone, just hit the market with an asking price of $2,200,000. The price tag seems lofty for just part of a house, but this unit is 3,000-square-feet large (plus it has another 1,500 square feet of basement space and a small deck and full garden rights). And, obviously, the scale of historic quality of the architecture are stunning. So, do they have a shot?

  1. no worries rob, kihinde wiley (the painting’s artist) is overrated, and makes a nice room look like crap in my opinion.

    great space, and a good price if you consider the total sq footage and variety you’re getting in terms of having basement and garden.

  2. Dave,
    Yes, you’re right, the house is approximately 60 feet long including the bay windows. And the 25 foot width is great.
    I completely agree with you that if the bedrooms were upstairs it would be more desirable. Whether you call it the “Garden Level” or the “Royal Versailles Story”, it is still the basement, which means you are below sidewalk level and the windows need bars.
    That’s the minus, the plus is that it would be a super place for entertaining.
    But I don’t think anything is selling now. Do you?

  3. It’s 25 X 60 people. That said, I wouldn’t pay this money if one floor was the basement (garden level). If it was reversed and was parlour floor and up that might be different.
