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…

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 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.

where is cobble hill?
never heard of it.
to answer what cobble hill has going for it…
it is close to perfect brick houses and some brownstones. i think brownstones are dark and oppressive, so i really appreciate all the brick.
people with money and taste bought up everything, making it ideal.
also, all the local restaurants, quick hop on a cab going down clinton, and the multitude of subway stops, make it very livable. it is also a more upscale, not so many poorly dressed liberal types or worse, boring just moved from the UWS types as in PS.
i have lived in multiple nyc neighborhoods, and altho i don’t live in cobble hill now, i think few places rival it.
if you like it and can’t afford it now, check out greenpoint. some similar housing stock, and lots of conveniences and no “bad” area.
also, PS 31 + PS 34 are 5 star schools according to insideschools.org.
What makes Cobble Hill interesting is its proximity to Red Hook.
That apartment in Tribeca looks nice, but the pics don’t seem to match the floorplan. In the pictures, the oven faces the inside wall while in the floorplan it faces out (which would seem weird anyway). Also, the pics show the livingroom with 2 windows while the floorplan only shows 1.
I thought it was its proximity to Park Slope that made it ok?
“Hey 4:19- the jerk store called, and they were out of you.”
Well then, 4:37, it makes perfect sense that it would be calling you, in that case. You’d better get down there a.s.a.p. and make yourself available for purchase.
I think Cobble Hill does not have much going for it other than being close to Brooklyn Heights.

Hows about this one on 18th street-
