House of the Day: 276 Berkeley Place
Yesterday we looked at one beautiful Berkeley Place house; today we look at another. Number 276 is more than a house–at 36 feet wide, this one qualifies as a mansion. This place is so sweet that we think it’ll remain above the market-cooling fray. Granted there aren’t a lot of folks who can afford this…
Yesterday we looked at one beautiful Berkeley Place house; today we look at another. Number 276 is more than a house–at 36 feet wide, this one qualifies as a mansion. This place is so sweet that we think it’ll remain above the market-cooling fray. Granted there aren’t a lot of folks who can afford this nut, but we can see someone who does falling head over heels in love with this place. The Romanesque Revival mansion, which is only half a block from the park, goes to eleven. Eleven bedrooms, that is. And the owner of this place will be able to choose from any of six thrones to feel like a king on. What’s particularly sweet is that it’s a perfectly preserved one-family that’s never been chopped up or reconfigured. At just over $500 a foot, this doesn’t seem overpriced either. Watcha think?

As I posted before, at this price point, I’d rather have me a 16-footer, 4-floor 4m brownstone in Manhattan (you can find these on UES/UWS). If you’re talking 3.5mish, then maybe I’d go for this and put 500k work (new expanded kitchen, laundry room, central air/heat, updated bathrooms).
Maybe we could all chip in a dollar and buy it together.
well then the “pantry”/kitchen is going to clearly need updating. also, if i am going to own a mansion and be entertaining people, there better be a bathroom on the floor im entertaining on…there is none on the first floor.
its seems we have found the fatal flaw
no kitchen in floorplan or in pics.
who cooks anyway.
shahn: that’s what i figured…
can someone look at the floorplan and tell me where the kitchen is?
for 4 million you won’t find anything close to this in manhattan. this house would go for 20 mill plus in the upper east side and 15 mill plus anywhere else in the city. for 4 mill in the west village you’ll get a 3000 sq ft house on a short narrow lot or or a 2 or 3 story building. this is worth the price. in brooklyn heights they’d ask 12mill
Absolutely beautiful house. Way above anything I could imagine to buy at this time. For whatever my two cents are actually worth, I would buy a browntsone in the West Village for that amount of money. Of course, my opinion is based on personal preferences, so I am sure some one might prefer this brownstone to one in the West Village.
