House of the Day: 558 Third Street
Third Street is arguably the Slope’s grandest East-West street and limestone mansions like this single-family at Number 558 are the reason why. We’re aching to see some interior pics but have no reason to doubt the listing’s desciption of original “lovingly maintained” original details. (Throw us a bone with that “paneled formal dining room” though!)…

Anyhoozles, there was an open house yesterday, though we suspect that the $3,499,000 asking price puts the 4,400-square-foot shloss out of the range of most readers. Anyone go for the pure voyeurism of it all?

It always strikes me as weird to see these once-charming Victorian houses made over in faux-Federal style, with the bright white woodwork everywhere, the spartan rooms, and the icky brass “Colonial” chandeliers circa 1980. It seems so lifeless. Oh for a heat gun and a little eclectic clutter!
Ya know, if more of you would consider trying my plan–which is to opt out of the breeding program and spend the money on the house and vacations–we’d have a lot fewer tedious, repetitive arguments about frickin’ PS 321… 🙂 This is a pretty house. But should the exterior of the windows be white with a stained door? Bugs me. They should be the same. I think I’d like ’em black. Thoughts on colors?
From the Apostrophe Police:
2:53 is talking about the ‘s, not the word.
On topic: why no kitchen photos?
Also: 321 is a great school, anyone who wants to blow 23K/year instead of sending kids there is deluded, unless your kids have special needs (like being with other millionaire’s kids.)
don’t be an ahole.
28 students is a perfectly reasonable sized class size.
28 kids in one classroom? How many teachers per classroom?
i see your point about anyhoozles. pretty funny, if you ask me though.
but mansion? that seems a pretty standard term and one that certainly applies to these places along 3rd street.
Mansion’s? Anyhoozles? Is that you, Mr. B., or a new junior assistant?
“321 has 35+ kid in each 1st grade classroom. Sorry, but not the better than private. Sadly, 321 is not as good as it once was. Victim on its own success.”
judging from your poor grammar, it would appear you have been to neither public nor private school.
🙁
you’d think they’d spring for someone to draw plans
