House of the Day: 56 Middagh Street

This clapboard house at 56 Middagh Street in Brooklyn Heights hit the market shortly before Christmas with an asking price of $3,600,000. It’s a charmer to be sure (love those wide floorboards!) but for that price the kitchen is a bit of a letdown. But the again consider that there’s an income-generating apartment on the ground floor and that the 3,200-square-foot house (recently listed in the Marketplace) comes with a 400-square-foot side lot with room to park three cars. That’s gold in The Heights!

How come in the exterior picture you can see none of the right side of the building? I thought the floor plan would show some strange angled wall on that side, but it’s square.
Ahhhh, men…
Amen.
And the choir said amen, ML.
This is a very old house. I hope whoever buys it appreciates that fact and realize that they will be stewards of a piece of American history. I hope they don’t buy it because they missed out on the brownstone or loft they really wanted.
This is a beauty.
Very sweet house, but is it me or do the ceiling heights make the whole thing feel a little squat?
jinx, tina. you owe me a drink.
Charming house. But stoop/stairs in front is odd–should be white!!
I thinthe rails, newels & bannister on the front steps should be white to match the trim.
