Co-op of the Day: 19 Seventh Avenue Studio
Okay, we know you’re not going to find anything else for much cheaper in Park Slope Proper, but still, paying $249,000 for this glorified shoe box in an otherwise generously-sized brownstone at 19 Seventh Avenue seems like a bit of a stretch to us.

Okay, we know you’re not going to find anything else for much cheaper in Park Slope Proper, but still, paying $249,000 for this glorified shoe box in an otherwise generously-sized brownstone at 19 Seventh Avenue seems like a bit of a stretch to us. The listing spins the place as “cozy” and plays up the “modern” kitchen but, eesh, after you put down $50,000, you’ll be paying, what, $1,200 a month in mortgage plus another few hundred bucks in maintenance? We can’t see a whole lot of upside when it comes to resale (and can easily imagine a scenario in which you can’t even get your down payment back out) so why not just rent?

Does anyone know how long this thing has been on market? That price is downright cheap for that location, and I’m thinking I might want to take a look…unless someone can point me in the general direction of something bigger for the same price in that same area or better, which in casual looking over the last year or so, I simply haven’t seen.
ha 4.48 FARTING is indeed allowed in this part of the slope because I fart all over the north slope that is why it is so stinky. This kitchen Has tremendous counter space if I farted it would disappear.
1:24 is correct, the broker was foxtons.
this apartment is about 200 square feet, maybe a little bigger.
lolz!
Farting is not allowed in that part of the Slope.
i saw this unit when foxton’s had it. it is no larger than a small bedroom. now picture this: your bedroom, with a kitchen along the wall, a fireplace on another wall, the bathroom and a closet on the 3rd wall. it leaves you 1/2 a wall (cause the front door takes up some of the wall). if you put a murphy bed or futon there’s NO room to walk, roll over or fart.
Bobba Bouey!!
I think the apartment next door is going on sale soon, too. Someone could buy the two and easily combine them for a decent floor through one bedroom.
“You aren’t going to find cheaper in Park Slope.”
Not this year.
“Is the joke on us or them?”
LOL. But seriously, 1:16. Clermont, FL? Nice orange to compare to the big apple for $300K though (probably still overpriced for that area).
