Co-op of the Day: 692 President Street
This top-floor duplex at 692 President Street has a couple of things going for it: It’s cute and it has exclusive roof rights. (The listing describes a slick new kitchen but fails to include a photo.) On the flip side, at 650 square feet, this one-bedroom is on the small side. Luckily, the monthly maintenance…

This top-floor duplex at 692 President Street has a couple of things going for it: It’s cute and it has exclusive roof rights. (The listing describes a slick new kitchen but fails to include a photo.) On the flip side, at 650 square feet, this one-bedroom is on the small side. Luckily, the monthly maintenance is only $536. The asking price, however, is $499,000, which is high on a per-square-foot basis, unless you place a lot of value on the undeveloped roof.

Um..Mr B the 4th photo in the listing is of the kitchen. Nice pad but definitely on the small side. Price per square foot is high but still not too many cheaper and nicer apts available in that part of town.
“The listing describes a slick new kitchen but fails to include a photo.”
There are two photos of the kitchen, and it does in fact look slick to me.
“Super cute, and really 500 square feet at most”
Sorry I have to disagree. Just by adding the dimensions on the floorplan of the Living, Bedroom and kitchen, it’s 530 sf.
And that’s not including closets, bathroom, etc, which they ALWAYS consider in square footage calculations.
When we were searching for our first home in 1994 we looked at a 4 story, 4 family brownstone in this block (or maybe it was the next one over). At $248k we couldn’t afford. We ended up with a frame on 15th St for under $200k but I’ll always regret not robbing a bank to get that house on President.
I’d love to live there… for half the asking price.
Super cute, and really 500 square feet at most. It’s a very adorable garret, I think $1,000/square foot is aspirational.
Too small for my needs. Killer location tho.
where to start?… bathroom up a spiral staircase, off the bedroom. “exclusive roof rights” looks like it’s just a bare roof. that pic with the lounge chairs is laughable.
I.
want.
it.
