Is it just our imagination or have there been a number of $3 million-plus houses hitting the market in Park Slope recently. (Just last week we looked at 112 Prospect Park West.) This five-story bay-front house at 52 Montgomery Place just hit the Corcoran site and there’s not much to go on yet: There are no photos or floorplans posted and the first showing hasn’t happened yet. While we have no reason to doubt the listing’s description of “rooms of grand proportions with period details,” the air conditioners and the fact that the same person has owned us makes us wonder what kind of shape the interior’s in. Then again, after owning the house for three and a half decades, the seller took out a $550,000 mortgage two years ago; perhaps that money went into giving the house a tune up. Anyone been inside in the last couple of years?

  1. I know Jackie and she is a great broker and lives in the neighborhood. The house was just listed today (per StreetEasy) so obviously they haven’t been able to shoot the interior yet. I’m surprised you didn’t know that. Many listings “go active” with limited photographs and are then updated when the professional crew has a chance to shoot the house.

    In addition, what’s with all the broker bashing? Stick to comments on the house. I don’t criticize you, bob999, when you fail to wipe my windshield after you’ve filled up my gas tank. And super-stalker “suzy” … you are scaring us. We were polite enough not to mention your herpes so please don’t go digging for biographical tidbits on people. “EJ” … this is your mommy, time to back to the padded room now sweety. Bob999 got you all excited.

    Now back to the house. Anyone know the set-up? One family? Three? Any controlled or stabilized tenants? Delivered vacant?

  2. jesus, people, lay off. no, i’m not jackie. i don’t know jackie. i do know, however, that ad hominem attacks do nothing to further a discussion.

    it’s easier to type than to think, ain’t it?

  3. hey, bob999, let me lend you a hand.

    from the corcoran agent profile:

    “Her enthusiasm is not just limited to Real Estate, but to the Brooklyn Jewish Film Festival where she is the co-founder and co-director. A resident of Park Slope, she loves raising her family here …and her love of the Slope is contagious!!”

    the extra exclamation point is right there, on the site. they’re a perky bunch.

  4. Exactly, Anon 12:43, and I’m going to keep speculating about Jackie’s life until she backs up her claims of abundant details with photographic proof. She drives a white lexus with gold trim, she lives UES in a high-rise with white carpeting, she’s divorced, and she has a yorkie with a cute name.

  5. “Spactacular details abound in this prestigious Montgomery Place townhouse”… Wow that is a mouthful. The agent looks like she could use some sleep. She’s probably too tired from writing that incredible and amazing description to check her spelling right? All those abonding details must have worn her out.

  6. Wow! $550,000.

    I haven’t bought a car in some years, but that mini-van must be totally tricked to the nines! Town & Country on ‘roids and rims, no doubt.

    Or are those three dogs holding some kind of royal pedigree?
