House of the Day: Going Back to Cali
You know we’ve been around awhile when we’ve witnessed the full lifecycle of a house, from a guest post on the construction process to post on the finished product to the house changing hands for the first time.

You know we’ve been around awhile when we’ve witnessed the full lifecycle of a house, from a guest post on the construction process to post on the finished product to the house changing hands for the first time. Such is the case with 112 Butler Street. This very modern new-build in Boerum Hill received a very warm reception from readers when we displayed when we wrote about it last May. After less than a year living in the house, the owner and his family have decided to move back to their home state of California. The house (which is somewhere between 2,500 and 2,800 square feet) is now listed with Corcoran for $2.25 million. There’s no way around the fact that this expensive for the location and the square footage but it’s certainly worth a shot given the house’s unique design. By comparison, the 14 Townhouses, arguably in a better location, are priced at $2.65 million and have about 1,000 square feet more space but no garage. What do you think? Do they have a shot at this price?

How about a 3 block radius, then… this is way too close to those projects to pay over $2MM. if you have kids you would have to be crazy to live here
well in Brownstone Brooklyn a 10 block radius you are not going to find.
Eliminate all Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, most of Bklyn Hts.

for 2+ Million, I would would want a relatively safe haven for at least 10 block radius around my home/investment.
wow, I really like this (and I am a brownstone freak), I must also say that the garage is a bid plus. Still, I would not pay $2+million for it. $800 a square foot – dont think so!
I’ve been sitting on my stoop chatting with homeless people.
That’s a step up from this, troll.
Run for your lives! Ed is back, and dumber than ever!
I’m not sure the 14 townhouses are the best precedent since puzzlingly few of them have sold.
The asking price is still high and they have been on the market for a long time. Why doesn’t the developer cut the price?
What a stupid question to ask. Almost as stupid ass the idiots who answer it.
This place must be all of 40 feet from the projects on Hoyt.
