Co-op of the Day: 24 Montgomery Place, #2
$1,195,000 is a lot of dough for a single-floor apartment but then again this parlor floor pad at 24 Montgomery Place in Park Slope is hardly run-of-the-mill. The original details are stunning and the location is obviously first-rate so we wouldn’t write this one off as being overpriced. The only drawback is that the railroad-y…

$1,195,000 is a lot of dough for a single-floor apartment but then again this parlor floor pad at 24 Montgomery Place in Park Slope is hardly run-of-the-mill. The original details are stunning and the location is obviously first-rate so we wouldn’t write this one off as being overpriced. The only drawback is that the railroad-y configuration doesn’t lend itself very well to having a second bedroom. Thoughts?

It is technically not a railroad apartment but rather the parlor floor of a rowhouse that has been turned into a separate unit. The layout is similar to a walk-up railroad flat in a new-law tenement apartment building.
that 839 carroll is the best of the 3 but it doesnt have the same amount of wood to make it apples to apples with this COTD
I’d rather have this for a couple hundred grand less:

Ok. You cannot write things like this unless you’re going to change your name. I won’t stand for it.
(Stand for it….)
much better deal:

Yesterday, on HOTD, we were (um, I was, at least) talking about the combination of beautiful detail AND good layout.
This is a railroad apartment no matter how you cut it, and a long one at that, meaning that living room is going to be freakin dark unless you have the bedroom doors open.
It’s a beautiful floor of a house. I don’t think it justifies $1000/foot.
I wonder what Gwinneth Paltrow would say about it?

Post war would be the Civil War. Or perhaps the Spanish American War.
Gorgeous parlor floor. But lotsa money!

It is splendid.
