Co-op of the Day: 1 Pierrepont Street 3BR

A massive apartment at Brooklyn Heights’ swankiest address has just hit the market. This high-floor three-bedroom co-op at 1 Pierrepont Street has been under the same ownership for three decades and retains much of its original charm, though the apartment does sport a large, recently renovated kitchen with all the trappings. The monthly maintenance is $3,640 and the asking price is $4,500,000. We’ll be mighty surprised if this asking price is achieved. After all, the most recent sale in the building was a four-bedroom that went for just $3,150,000 after dramatic price cuts. Update: As a commenter points out, Property Shark and StreetEasy both have the wrong sales price for 8A. As per city records, the actual sales price was $4,650,000. How does that change your outlook?

“‘High floor’…given that there’s a skylight, I’d think ‘top floor’ or ‘penthouse’ would have greater marketing force.” (BSD)
I don’t think that top floor area is part of the apartment. Must be some common space in the building??
Wow, this pricing seems completely delusional (especially with that huge mtn fee). Begs the question, what would this go for in Manhattan?
I think these are not particularly motivated or serious owners.
There used to be a bathroom in the maid’s room in the original configuration. This was eliminated in the (ill-conceived, imho) redesign. See floorplan #2 on the Corcoran site.
Sorry, but no one “common” could ever pay the maintenance. Calling it a common charge somehow seems like an oxymoron to me. Should be called uncommon charge or elite charge or I’m above it all charge?
The kitchen might qualify for an actual “chef’s kitchen”. Looks like a lot of commercial grade appliances.
I agree! – wow 3million is a bit insane
it’s a SPACIOUS place, no doubt with 3 REAL bedrooms and a great kitchen and views
but why isn’t there at least a half bath for guests to use – why must they enter someones bedroom to use the bathroom?
you know?
agreed – no powder room? 3mm tops i thinks
That is weird that if any guests want to use the bathroom, they have to go through the bedroom.
“High floor”…given that there’s a skylight, I’d think “top floor” or “penthouse” would have greater marketing force.
Yeah, the bathrooms, I keep staring at the floor plan. Not one is accessible without going thru a bedroom? How can that be in this kind of apartment?
