Co-op of the Day: 450 Clinton Street, #3E
Sometimes the fantasy is better than the reality. The idea of a high-ceilinged apartment carved out of an old church sounds great. As this listing at 450 Clinton Street shows, however, the resulting space can be a little awkward. It’s hard to see how this will end up fetching close to the $850,000 asking price….

what is in the utility closet? Can it be demolished?
It would bother me every single day.
Quirky but in a kinda cool way.
Rob – really? Do you spend your day thinking of unpleasant things to post about people? Get a grip man. Karma has a way of biting you in the ass.

yeah. but the ironic thing is that the person who moves into this will totally be a cookie cutter person.

Is the common charge not listed? That’s odd. One would assume with such a high asking price the carrying charges would be very low. The two are always inversely proportional.
..the comment about only two windows for 800,000 is pretty eye-opening. I mean this is Carroll Gardens not Tribeca.
It doesn’t say what the maintenance is. Is it high in that building?
I’d prefer more windows but the ceilings are great. Too bad about the placement of the utility closet.
There are a lot of steps but that’s true of brownstones too.
I like the vaulted ceiling and the common garden a lot. I think the unit definitely has a lot of charm. It will appeal to someone who doesn’t want to live in a cookie-cutter apartment. The price does seem quite high for a one-bedroom. I think the sale price will be a number beginning with 6.
I know someone who lives here in another unit. It’s a nice building but the layouts are difficult and the windows/lighting sometimes not great. For example that floor window in the kitchen.
Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.
