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.

  1. Yeah 11217 – I’m really falling in love with Red Hook too, although the potential buyers for that place probably won’t overlap with this co-op

    Chicken – Red Hook is kinda far from the F train – but if you have a bike/don’t mind taking the bus it isn’t that bad (i’ve heard)

    Ikea also had a a free shuttle bus/ferry to lower manhattan for a while, but i’m not sure if it is still running.

    Sorry – didn’t mean to Red Hook hijack this thread. Back to saying how overpriced this place is!

  2. M4L,
    if this place were $500k, you’d have to be on $133k and have over $100k in the bank for a deposit.

    If you make $133k, is this what you should aspire to?
    Flip it around. If this place rents for $3k, and apply the crazy NY 40x rule, then the landlord won’t rent to you unless you make $120k.

    There’s no reason (barring hyperinflation) why the price for this shouldn’t come back down to the $500k range.

  3. Thanks Dave.

    Well it’s a 1 bedroom more4less. Ok, how about 600K. I just can’t envision who wants to spend 1 million to live in a 1 bedroom in Park Slope. Can you? As lechacal said…maybe in the West Village, but I don’t see who the potential buyers of a place like this would be.
