Co-op of the Day: 128 Willow Street
You can go check out the open house at this Willow Street one-bedroom this weekend…as long as you’re not a broker. The location is killer and the fourth-floor apartment has nice prewar details that appear to be in good shape. The kitchen is so-so but the bathroom is a classic. That said this is not…
You can go check out the open house at this Willow Street one-bedroom this weekend…as long as you’re not a broker. The location is killer and the fourth-floor apartment has nice prewar details that appear to be in good shape. The kitchen is so-so but the bathroom is a classic. That said this is not a huge place — no place to stash a toddler here. How does the asking price of $468,000 strike you?

Correcting my above comment: seller has one offer at ask, not two. Sorry for the misinformation.
I live in the building and know the owner has two offers at ask right now.
To Anon 12:34, there are no subways running underneath Willow Street and it’s hardly “right by” the BQE. Are you thinking of Willow Place?
On the building financials, it’s interesting to get feedback on the maintenance because I’ve never been sure whether it’s high or in line. There’s been one assessment since I moved here (in 1999) for the basement storage cages; building’s financials are extremely healthy.
I looked at an almost identical apartment in this building just about a year ago and they were asking 395, if I remember correctly. The building is great and the apartment is adorable, but it’s definitely small — only one person could comfortably live there.
I actually think this apartment is underpriced, and will probably generate a bidding war. I went to the open house last weekend, and it was really nice inside. (the current owner has great taste – the pictures don’t do it justice).
the box is a root cellar.
“Keep the wall. Counters with seating is hangover from 70’s and you, if can be avoided, should never have to see fridge from living room.”
You wouldn’t like most of the condos (including so-called “luxury”) going up these days, I assume. They ALL are like this.
I have one of those cold storage boxes under my kitchen window. They have vents to the outside (unless they have been stupidly cemented up like they were in my building).

Looks like a real nice place. Price is reasonable and the maintenance is not out of line for the area. I pay a little more for a one bedroom over the Promenade, and that seems to be in the same range as other 1BRs in the neighborhood. Rascal, I see your point about the kitchen wall, but there may be an elevator of stairwell on the other side…
