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.

Sometimes the hyperbole here is a little crazy.
It’s not uncommon to see average 1BRs in park slope selling for upper 475 – 499K. This one is obviously exceptional – 2 bathrooms, beautiful, large. I’m not sure where it should land but to say 500K seems ridiculous, unless the market has adjusted a great deal more than I have seen.
Well, it’s not tired to me since I didn’t read this site in Feb. 2008. This is a great apt. Beautiful details (tho dining room too much for me — oppressive), great light (despite the physical fact that light does NOT stream in from the North, as Dave pointed out), great size (as long as you don’t try to call it a two-bedroom). But the price is unrealistic.
But, hey, that’s their choice. For whatever reasons, the owners want to see what happens at this price.
dave do you do your own laundry?

I paid $820k for mine and put another $100k + into it and my laundry is in the basement. Even if I had paid $1-2MM elsewhere I’d assume the laundry would still be in the basement. I could put one on the top floor but why bother?
Chicken, I would sell my place to buy this one so it would mean small incremental $$$ needed to do it. albeit flr plan is restrictive in boxing it into a good 1-bdrm, it’s still 1100 sq ft so $500k would be a decent deal in my eyes
people who spend over a million dollars on an apartment dont really do their own laundry, do they!?!?

11217: Inventory is not skyrocketing in the slope. In fact I think it is currently low. I expect that to change over the coming months.
It’s overpriced!
Hijack away. This place was overpriced the last time we talked about it, and it seems even more overpriced now, even with the small price reduction.
I find it odd that people talk about inventory skyrocketing, yet here we are talking about the same old tired places over and over. In perusing real estate websites, I see far more interesting properties than those highlighted here recently. And no…not only ones in Park Slope… 😉
