Co-op of the Day: 80 Poplar Street, #1R
This two-bedroom at 80 Poplar Street in Brooklyn Heights hit the market in April 2008 with a price tag of $775,000.

This two-bedroom at 80 Poplar Street in Brooklyn Heights hit the market in April 2008 with a price tag of $775,000. Like yesterday’s Co-op of the Day, however, the owner doesn’t seem to be particularly motivated (in real estate parlance) judging from the fact that the asking price has been trimmed by only a paltry $15,000 to $760,000. The backyard space definitely gives this place a little extra sex appeal and the beamed ceiling in the kitchen is also quite charming; the 1,100-square-foot apartment’s monthly maintenance, however, is a rather unsexy $1,430. Reactions?

Is it just me or does this kind of maintenance make no sense? Its almost a whole other mortgage payment, and must be a huge deterrant to folks who might otherwise be looking in that price range.
beautiful place.
I cannot make heads or tails of this apartment. Do you really have to walk out on the deck to access the laundry? How oddly inconvenient.
I will spare it my most famous line “medieval layout” because its not that bad and the photos are very attractive.
I guess it has to be checked out in person.
compare to other listings in BH, this is not bad and possible be consider good. compared to yesterday’s COTD, this is better. On an absolute basis, might as well save a little longer and buy a house
BRG – Unit is located in “mews” behind the building that is depicted in photo above. This is hard up against 20 Henry development site. Take a look at patio photo on broker site – this unit resides in bldg to the right in photo. I think you wlak down alley way to left (east) side of front bldg to access the “mews.”
Oh…OK. Thanks, Dave.
“chicken…do you have a feng shui problem with beamed ceilings???

Nope – but then again I don’t have any feng shui problems with anything really!
ENY….I think the white windows are only a no-no on a brownstone, perfectly appropriate for a clapboard.

What exactly does this mean???
