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?

A lot of weird wasted space. I assume that the doorless bathroom is only the one that’s part of the master suite, which is fine.
Haven’t studied the floor plan but this looks like a pretty reasonable ask for that amount of space in that location. Nice looking building too. What it will actually sell for? Who knows but this is not one of those listings where you feel insulted by the asking price, especially with very reasonable maintenance.
I love this place. I think the layout is great (lack of bathroom door notwithstanding). The amount of closet space is fantastic. I also love the long hallway division btw. the living and sleeping space.
Weird. I know it was created as a Frakenpartment, but it is still weird.
Kinda creeping me out looking at the floor plan.
And the doorless entry to the bathroom…
I think the right half of the place needs to be reconstructed.
Put in a small 1/2 bath in place of the full bath (where the tub is now). Shift the big bedroom 2 feet 4 inches to the left to get that second bedroom up to 9 feet wide.
I don’t know. Location is nice. But I can’t help thinking that it looks like a suite at the crown plaza.
yes, ontheparkway…some of the people on this blog are really quite scary and disgusting.
you guys can really waste a lot of time on nothing. .. this place has a $700K pricetag on a 1-plus bedroom place with ten hallways and you are going to go back and forth for the next three hours about the door or no door on the bathroom. . .
“BRG, dead bolt on that door into bathrm/dressing rm area. Prob solved for cheap – probably less than $20â€
M4L…as a married couple getting ready to go to work in the morning, one spouse is on the crapper doing their business, the other should be able to get dressed in the ‘luxurious’ dressing room with out having break through a dead-bolt or having to see / hear spouse on the toilet.
Sorry, but IMHO it was really a bad design decision on the homeowner’s part.
> “Deserves 600/sq feet”
Not when so many of those sqft are so very poorly used.
Offer $550k.
good point – although I still don’t see it as a deal-breaker. I guess it was done so that the dressing rooms get some of the light from the bathrooms.
