Co-op of the Day: 225 Park Place, #2G-H
Even if you this apartment wasn’t labeled as a “G-H” combination, it would be pretty obvious from looking at the floorplan that two mirror-image apartments had been put together. The result is a very large (1,200 square feet) two-bedroom apartment with a slightly untraditional layout that appears to work nonetheless. The apartment has lots of…

Even if you this apartment wasn’t labeled as a “G-H” combination, it would be pretty obvious from looking at the floorplan that two mirror-image apartments had been put together. The result is a very large (1,200 square feet) two-bedroom apartment with a slightly untraditional layout that appears to work nonetheless. The apartment has lots of prewar details and looks to be in excellent shape. Location-wise, it’s just a couple of blocks from Grand Army Plaza. The monthly maintenance is surprisingly low at $770. Nice place! How does the asking price of $699,000 strike you?

We looked at this place and gave it a fair shot. This would be a place to buy purely for square footage firmly in the neighborhood. Needs a full kitchen overhaul including knocking down a wall to make it workable, bathroom and some doors.
swine flu=Tracey McLean or corcoran colleague?
Yeah, these tweener (between a 1- and 2-br) apartments never seem like a good deal. Too bad they couldnt have made that second br just 3 feet wider…and yes, doors on the wc’s are key. I think this will go for well under ask, lo maint. or not…
“Couldn’t you get a nice studio coop in prime Park Slope for that?”
Wish someone would have posted some comps in Park Slope, as I’m sure there are many.
i have been in many nice apartments that have attached dressing rooms and the bathrooms themselves do not have doors. it’s elegant and very common in nicer buildings. i guess they don’t have these types of buildings in bay ridge?
Just for the record:
My comments about the bathrooms not having doors are not inappropriate.

Of course this frankencoop’s floorplan is out of wack. Like it says, it’s two studios (reverse identical) put together and not a true 2 bedroom. Just looked at street easy and NYC DOF and… WOW… 5G in the building sold in 2007 for $347k.
Now I’m real confused.
and this coming from someone with that insensitive & inappropriate ID
