This three-bedroom co-op at 209 Lincoln Place that just hit the market has a slightly unusual layout for an old prewar apartment, but that’s largely the result of combining two apartments together. On the plus side, the resulting living and dining area is quite large; on the minus side, you have to walk through one of the bedrooms to get to another. The kitchen has also been renovated recently. The monthly maintenance is $1,558 and the asking price is $1,100,000. Think it’ll fly?

  1. gemini: “we interviewed one of their[BHS] listing agents to list our house and he said by only using a limited amount of photos makes the listing seem exclusive.”

    They actually said this? Is that a common notion? Ick. Don’t like. Not friendly.

  2. “I suspect we have found the two people who kept appraising the most the widget would afford. You two are dolts”

    Hey, unfair. I’ve never appraised at more than asking, but there have been a few times since the crash that I’ve felt the asking was realistic or close. It’s clearly an error when the widget doesn’t include the asking price.

    Saminthehood: Have always wondered same about the demands of a totally open kitchen like this.

    For me too the combined-apartment layout problems here are really a drawback to what should be a great pre-war place. I don’t see a good way to fix it. A hallway would eliminate half the closet space in the apartment.

  3. Besides the awkward (for some) room through a room layout, I personally dont like the other bedroom opening right into the kitchen.

    As an aside, while I get the idea of open kitchens like that (expands feeling of space, permits more socialization with guests and family) – dont you have to keep them totally spotless all the time and make sure that your vent is commercial grade to avoid smells? Seems like a difficult task – or do people who have them never cook?

  4. “Parking by waitlist”, that’s great brokerspeak!

    I’m sorta in agreement about the desirability of bedrooms at opposite ends of the apt, but it doesn’t work here. The ‘office/study’ has all the closets.
