Co-op of the Day: 806 Carroll Street, #2 (Revisited)
There’s no arguing with the beauty of this parlor floor co-op at 806 Carroll Street in Park Slope. We virtually drooled over the kingly one-bedroom pad when when featured it as a House of the Day in February 2008. Back then it was asking $1,195,000.

There’s no arguing with the beauty of this parlor floor co-op at 806 Carroll Street in Park Slope. We virtually drooled over the kingly one-bedroom pad when when featured it as a House of the Day in February 2008. Back then it was asking $1,195,000. The owner must not be particularly desperate to sell because fifteen months later the price has only been trimmed to $1,150,000. A lot of dough, but at least the maintenance is a mere $850 per month.

Co-op of the Day: 806 Carroll Street [Brownstoner]
If I had to choose between a dishwasher and in-home laundry, the dishwasher would win every time. I don’t bust suds!!!
I got dish drawers so that I don’t need to wait a week to do a load.
I have had a dishwasher for the last two years after never having had one. And now I would never go back – I love it! It’s a good size and we only run it once every few days. No roach problem. Mopar, if your garbage attracts roaches after just one day, it sounds like there’s a problem in your neighbors place.
I have a dishwasher. I can’t imagine not having one now that I’ve been blessed with one for 10 years. It’s small so it’s not hard to fill up and run it immediately. For tinier loads, I just run it on the lightest setting.
Although I couldn’t imagine living in this place with children.
Tempest in a teacup.
I think its misleading to list the WD in the listing. A lot of people can’t interpret floorplans and would assume. And. like lechacal said, its probably a necessity if you have children.
Who here has a dishwasher?
I was thinking of course we have to have one but then….if you put your dishes in it for a day or two before using, wouldn’t it just be full of roaches?
I keep my garbage in a special bin in the fridge and empty it daily for this reason.
Ahhh, that makes sense. I think it’s relevant info that the wd is in the basement. Still better than having to go to the laundromat.
Three options for Washer/dryer: There’s W/D in the apartment, then there’s a shared set up in the basement, then there’s nothing which means trudging to a laundrymat.
A shared set up is still an amenity and is really is not that bad IMO, unless (I suppose) you’re accustomed to having a W/D in your apartment. Probably one of those things, like a dishwasher, that once you have it, you never go back.
In a smaller apartment, I prefer the laundry elsewhere since every square foot counts.
