Co-op of the Day: 280 Prospect Park West
The address of this two-bedroom walk-up at 280 Prospect Park West sounded a lot better before we realized it was more than four full blocks from the actual park. What’s more, the place can’t be more than about 600 square feet. Still, we can’t think of a whole lot of two bedrooms in the area…
The address of this two-bedroom walk-up at 280 Prospect Park West sounded a lot better before we realized it was more than four full blocks from the actual park. What’s more, the place can’t be more than about 600 square feet. Still, we can’t think of a whole lot of two bedrooms in the area for less than the asking price of $450,000. As for comps, all we know is that an apartment on the third floor—which may or may not be of similar size and quality—sold back in 2005 for $420,000. How do you think this stacks up against yesterday’s co-op on Lincoln Place?
280 Prospect Park West – Apt: 4 [Corcoran] GMAP P*Shark
hideous, hideous, hideous.
It will sell.
Isn’t this where those 2 guys home invaded an old woman last week by telling her they were cops? Really nice neighborhood. Oh, I guess that answers the question – it couldn’t possibly be park slope.
I would consider PPW to be WT once you’re south of the traffic circle.
I actually like this location – F train within a minute’s walk, and quick access to the park. Decent shopping nearby…
But the apartment looks a little small for the price, and what’s with the lack of pix?
This is once again the most viewed property on Corcoran right now. That means that either Brownstoner readers overwhelm corcoran whenever prompted to, or that there aren’t that many people looking for real estate today.
Exactly! I thought it was 9th Avenue. Because nothing that is off the park looks like this.
But, this is a quaint little area.
Teeeny bedrooms, but, hey, they are separated nicely. One could be a baby room or office. For under 500K in a nice nabe, whaddya want, ya know?
I thought the layout of the Lincoln Place one was amazing. This one – not so much.
This is definitely WT – I dont think anyone who knows the area could argue about that. Its in a less than central WT spot but since the nabe is so tiny anyway, its still quite close to train, park, stores, etc..
No clue if it will sell or not but for $420, I wouldn’t expect a whole lot.
2 bedrooms 8 feet wide, might as well get a cell in Rikers.
