House of the Day: Price Cut at 112 Butler Street
When the modern house at 112 Butler Street hit the market last fall, almost everyone agreed that it was a great example of modern townhouse design. There was significantly less agreement about the $2,250,000 asking price. After being off the market for several months, the price has recently been cut by $100,000. Will this be…

When the modern house at 112 Butler Street hit the market last fall, almost everyone agreed that it was a great example of modern townhouse design. There was significantly less agreement about the $2,250,000 asking price. After being off the market for several months, the price has recently been cut by $100,000. Will this be enough to get a deal done? Hard to say, though the market is arguably stronger now. Of course, the shooting directly across the street earlier this week can’t be helping the sales effort.

“the market is arguably stronger now” really?
and the zoned schools are awful.
I just don’t see a family who are looking to spend 2mm and send their kids to private schools buying this place.
This also has to be the most idiotic looking home I’ve ever seen. That glass facade is ridiculous.
Guys, it is 1/2 a block away from the projects… 1/2 a block!!!
anon 2:51 you got it a bit wrong…manhattan dude blew himself up in his townhouse that he didn’t want to sell. UES psycho went to extreme measures to take the home away from ex. But then she got last laugh when she was able to sell the site for a far greater sum without the house on it.
anything where people can see you from smith street is fine. now, the corcoran listing for a two bedrrom on warren that is literally between two of the projects, and asking $600k+? that’s another story.
It is very cool but perhaps playing in the wrong game. If I wanted $1m worth of modern materials, I’d look for evidence of them in the house and I don’t see them here.
An old brownstone has detail you can’t buy new, at any price, which is why people pay $2m for them (rightly or wrongly).
Anon 2:28. Last June a guy killed his ex-wife by blowing up there townhouse on 62nd St. between Madison + Park. Got to watch out for those nieghborhoods North of Court St. too? As one who remembers what Smith + Hoyt St. were like back in the 80s + early 90s, you can’t desribe the neighborhood as anything but “safe” these days.
I thought this nabe was beohrem hill? no?
