Brown Harris Stevens got out the cleaver this week on a couple of their townhouse listings on Dean Street. The house on the left, 239 Dean Street, has been on the market for 24 weeks, according to Natefind, and was just cut from $1,985,000 to $1,800,000. The address of the house on the right is undisclosed but is almost certainly further east. This baby gets about a zero on the charm-o-meter so we’re not surprised the price was reduced within two weeks of being listed from $1,695,000 to $1,395,000. It never had a business at its original asking price and still has a long way to go before anyone’s going to take it seriously. As for Number 239, we’re curious to know what’s holding it back. Were there questionable renovations done at some point?

Always follow the money trail……
The WatchTower Corporation is a multi media production and printing
company, and we know all activities are only for the purpose of
promoting and raising funds for the WatchTower Corporation.
They produce books, tapes, CD’s, and videos. Their main business is
soliciting donations, both door to door from strangers and from their
own members at WatchTower Corporation sponsored meetings.
Their second cash producing business is sponsoring events and
conventions and collecting donations at those. The third equity business
is the real estate development and speculating business.
A huge sub business is the soliciting and managing of the proceeds of
wills, trusts, and cash assets of loyal members. This is their lowest
road and they pursue it with impunity.
Why not a brownstone?
It’s funny you say that, because I was thinking that about the steps
outside; I have a vivid memory of Bobbie sitting outside on those steps
crying during the birthday party that Tony and Carly gave for her (I
think this was just over 3 years ago), and Stefan finding her there;
that’s the last time I remember seeing that set.
239 Dean St. looks like a real winner. Can you imagine how much this townhouse will be worth in 10 years. It’s 3 blocks away from Atlantic Yards!
239 has been on market for 6 months. so I guess time for a price reduction if seriously want to sell.
but it does look nice.
dear helen sold me my house in 1986.
This seems to be pick on Helen Van Rhym day. (she’s the broker for both listings)
the owner’s unit at 239 has only one bathroom downstairs, so that if you have to go… careful not to trip on the way down.
I saw 239 Dean Street a couple of months ago. Apparently either the current owner or a previous owner is an architect and really did a number on the interior. There are a bunch of strange cut outs and angles inside. I’m sure that there must be some people that would like it, but the whole thing made me shake my head. It would take a fair amount of work just to make the place normal again.
The day that I saw the house, they were not showing the two rentals, which is sort of frustrating considering that they take up half of the house.
the one on the right looks like queens.
I think that the 2nd house is b/w Underhill and Vanderbilt. I certainly recognize it as part of a group of truly ugly houses. They do all have off-street parking, though, which I guess is exciting for some people.
