Co-op of the Day: 160 Henry Street
Are there still buyers out there looking to drop $4,250,000 on a Brooklyn Heights co-op? We’ll find out soon. This 3,000-square-foot penthouse at 160 Henry Street just hit the market with that price tag. The photos look nice, for sure, but it’s really the floorplan that makes a better case for the high price. Now…

Oh, in case you were wondering, you are allowed to use this place as a pied-a-terre. Phew.

Dave,
My folks are in their 60’s and extremely active. They are however building a house where there is a space carved out to install an elevator. They know that they aren’t going to be moving once they get into this house so they’re being smart and planning ahead for a day when stairs DO become an issue.
Also, as someone who has suffered from a severe ankle injury I can say that some days those stairs, much as I love them, become quite formidable.
great place
but if I had 4 million not really sure I would buy a coop – I would probably want a fancy brownstone in park slope….
Also it seems the last COTD have been Brown&Harris properties – no?
Aaarrggggh….I can’t stop staring at this floor plan.
I LOVE THIS APT!

Dave, that’s why I want a detached frame house in GH 🙂 There’s one I’ve got my eye on (though it’s not for sale and I’m broke!)
It’s a beauty and it’s got charm to spare. I would still take a brownstone though. By today’s standards I would think many would hate the smallish bathroom size.
Once again I agree with Sam.
I had a house for many years. Enjoyed it, and it worked well for my daughter. Now that we’re empty nesters, and given some medical issues my wife has, we bought a one-level condo four years ago, and we are really glad we did it. I still miss some aspects of having a home, but that is more than made up by what we’ve gained: ease of living, more time to do the things we couldn’t do when we were raising my child and more money to spend on entertainment and travel. I’d recommend that folks consider this change after their kids have moved on.
I would love to be able to afford this apartment, $4000/month maintenance and all.
And besides it’s a full floor PH. There’s nobody above them and no one to share the hall with as they wait for the attended elevator.
Snappy…most Brooklyn brownstones have shared walls as well!!!! Although I’ve never heard my neighbors through mine.
I know they do, BRG, I’m just one of those people who likes to be free and clear of shared walls etc. Besides, I’m loud and feel sorry for anyone who would end up sharing a wall with me. My current situation is set up so that I don’t really share any walls with anyone and below me is an office. Once they close at 5pm, I’m free to blare my music, vacuum at 3am and all the other nutball things I do 🙂
