House of the Day: Clifton Place Move-In Ready
This new listing on Clifton Place looks pretty nice–and is $150,000 cheaper than the similar Cambridge Place listing a couple of blocks away. This listing looks like it may not have quite as much historic detail as the one on Cambridge, but it certainly is a lovely block. Clearly this place has been renovated recently…
This new listing on Clifton Place looks pretty nice–and is $150,000 cheaper than the similar Cambridge Place listing a couple of blocks away. This listing looks like it may not have quite as much historic detail as the one on Cambridge, but it certainly is a lovely block. Clearly this place has been renovated recently and is in move-in condition. The top floor has some design decisions we don’t love, but that’s just a personal thing. The house is listed as a multi-family but we have no idea whether it’s a 2- or 3-family (looks like it couldn’t be 4). We think $1.4 million is about market for this place, so it may have a shot at fetching the ask of $1.5 million.

just to address the school posts- I am going to check out ps 11- i did hear it was gaining head way.
Can anyone clarify? When it was listed lower by Corcoran, did it sell and is someone now trying to flip it, or did it not sell through Corcoran and BHS is now trying to sell it at a higher price?
The pics are still up on BHS. Problem may be your connection
layout just makes no sence, we looked at this place whan was listed by corcoran for 1.375
It has garden rental, butchered parlor rental and upper duplex. it is a mess.
Probably made to contract but now is back for so reason with differnt brooker.
1.4 would be good if it would be decent garden rental plus triplex. It is kind of annoying to pay this money and be forced to deal with stupid fllipers renovation.
acha, it looks like they stage it this time.
(they put the bed in the top open floor)
I think they got wind of this blog and just took the pictures down…
That said, I love this block of Clifton Place — although someone posted on this site recently that they live on this block but can’t wait to move due to drug activity.
It actually comes up as listed at $1.5 on BHS.
Ah, we thought we detected some flipper attributes to the reno but couldn’t tell enough from the pics to come down too hard–the top floor layout looks like it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.
I went to the openhouse when Jerry Minsky/Corcoran had it on the market. It stayed on the market (@ 1.375) week after week after week after week…The temporary kitchen and bath thrown into the lower duplex reek of ‘flipper’, really bad quality.
The upper duplex didn’t make much more sense — the ‘master suite’, as they were selling it, on the top floor has no bathroom! There’s one bathroom for the upper duplex. In short, you’d need to put a lot more time and money into making it a real $1.4 house. That house on Cambridge looks like a $1.4. This is not on that level.
That’s very encouraging to hear.
