Co-op of the Day: 205 Warren Street, #2A
We love the former Catholic school building at 205 Warren Street that this 1,300-square-foot loft apartment’s in. Built in 1887, the former St. Paul’s Parish School is now a 27-unit co-op. The second-floor apartments have 14-foot ceilings, making them ripe spaces for loft mezzanines. Two other similar apartments have sold recently, #2E for $995,000 this…

The second-floor apartments have 14-foot ceilings, making them ripe spaces for loft mezzanines. Two other similar apartments have sold recently, #2E for $995,000 this past July and #2H for $990,000 back in the summer of ’06. Based on those data points, #2A looks priced on the money to sell at $995,000, unless you think the market uncertainty of recent months merits a discount. Man, those windows are to die for.

Residential Sales 6/2/06 [Brownstoner]
Agree, this is overpriced for a 1 bedroom with loft. Cobble Hill sells to families, and this space just doesn’t work. The other one that sold had 2 bedrooms and baths, not a “loft”. Just not the same thing if you have kids. Perhaps for a single, or couple, but then why pay the Cobble Hill premium anyway?
1:05 is a little sick.
don’t mind her.
I love the look of this place but it’s very expensive for what it is… with another bedroom and bath that price would make more sense to me…
i looked at this bldg before. the apts are not big at all. def. not family sized. great for 1 person or maybe a couple.
lovely area. i think cobble hill is probably the nicest area in brooklyn.
i wanted to move back there when i moved last year, but there were slim pickins…
ghetto? scary? hah!
it seems spacious and well-located, but for nearly a million dollars one would expect two baths and two real bedrooms.
Yeah I’m thinking that I wouldn’t spend nearly a million bucks to live in the ghetto in a really dull, charmless, cheaply renovated, little place like this.
Cobble Hill can be downright scary any time of the day or night and I would never risk my life for the sake of windows.
The ceilings in the loft “bedrom” are ridiculously low. Pass.
Agreed, 12:59. The listing says they are counting the loft space as square footage. If the ceilings are under a certain height (I can’t remember what #) it’s not legal living space and can’t be counted as such. Wonder if the other units that sold were similar in sq. ft.
