We’re liking the looks of this one. The 900-square-foot two-bedroom at 24 Montgomery Place has the old world charm where it counts (floors, beams, windows, mantels) and some modern enhancements to the bathroom (not exactly our taste) and kitchen. The major gripe people will probably have with this place is the small, single-window second bedroom. Otherwise, seems like a very nice place priced about right at $699,000. Agree?

  1. “you all have all the time in world to meander everywhere?”

    You seem to have an excess of time writing asinine posts on brownstoner about homes you don’t even seem to like, so yes…I have time to walk down stairs and do some laundry.

  2. 1:40 – at this price, you can get a nice, new condo. this place has way too much painted over nonsense. and, it’s a ridiculous price for an inconvenient apartment?

    if you have a life, why waste your time installing ugly A/C units (that you have to haul up 4 flights), running up and down stairs carrying your laundry, and end up with this strange hybrid of old/new? doesn’t anyone on this site have a life?

    you all have all the time in world to meander everywhere? to wait for the steam to leave the bathroom so you can get ready in the morning without air conditioning? what adult wants to live like this? isn’t this type of living just flat out unacceptable to people over the age of 25? it’s awful to live like that.

    for that price, there are just way way better apts for sale, and as pointed out, as this would only be a buyer without kids, neighborhood issues like schools, etc… don’t come into play, so you’d really be able to consider a lot of options for that coin.

  3. I was just joking with you, 2:00.

    If you had seen a thread last week from this crazy person, he said that no one should marry unless they planned to have kids. It got quite ridiculous, as you can imagine.

    I know plenty of people (more and more all the time in fact) who marry and have no kids.

  4. 1:45 here – I did not say the couple needed to be married, and I know plenty of married couples who opt not to procreate. I think they have the advantage of being to live in this perfectly lovely kind of apartment and not have to shell out more money for more space to accommodate their kids. I have kids by the way, and love them so no flames that I am a kid-hater! I’m just pointing out that there are probably a lot of great buyers out there for this apt, who are either single or in a couple (gay, straight, whatever) but not planning on having kids anytime soon (or ever).

  5. 1:45…

    If you are the crazy man lady, this place can’t be possible for a married couple, because he says that married people have to procreate or else they are deemed unworthy for marriage.

    So singles are ok, couples are ok, married would be out, but I suppose since gays can’t marry, they’d be ok.

    Even if they have kids.

  6. I wish my “glorified post college apt” looked like this one. Seems more appropriate for a grown-up couple with no kids, and/or a single person. Only downside I think is that families with kids are sort of ruled out, but it is definitely a great option is kids aren’t in the picture for a while, or ever.
