House of the Day: 87 Garfield Place
While 87 Garfield Place may not be “Perfectly Park Slope” as the listing claims, it’s a decent looking building in decent location with a whole lot of space. Our prediction? A developer will snap this 5,600-square-foot property up and convert it into three spacious two-bedroom condos. Why, you ask? The building’s 20-by-70-foot floorplate makes it…
While 87 Garfield Place may not be “Perfectly Park Slope” as the listing claims, it’s a decent looking building in decent location with a whole lot of space. Our prediction? A developer will snap this 5,600-square-foot property up and convert it into three spacious two-bedroom condos. Why, you ask? The building’s 20-by-70-foot floorplate makes it the ideal size for such an undertaking. And, while the building’s bones are attractive, a developer doesn’t have to pay top dollar for a fancy exterior or interior. Just a thought. There’s an open house on Sunday from 11:30 to 1:00.

I live around the corner from this house and beleive me at 5600 squarefeet on this beautiful block, and great neighborhood, its a steal for a some one who appreciates beauty, security, fine restaurants, and great schools, I live on carrol street for over 25 years and seen a big change in this neighborhod,for the better, and with all these new homes and small condos that they are selling for top dollars, $2,500,000 is a bargain for this house on garfield pkace.
that house on century 21 is smaller than the one in garfield.. it says 2600 sq. feet.. the one in garfield is over 5000 squarefeet.
It’s a great house! at a great price. anyone would be lucky to snatch it up..
It amazes me what Mr. B proposes sometimes. Really inconsistent. This entry is a worthless discussion as evident by the overwhelming one sided viewpoints on this blog.
and the century21 house is 1/2 the size of Garfield.
This house sold for the asking price $1.3MM half what these guys on Garfield are asking http://www.century21.com/buy/property_detail.aspx?teasers=property-detail-pic+Property+Detail+with+Pictures&tr_key=33537246&bSite=N
and i think beautiful building is a bit of a stretch, no?
i would think someone who wants a 2 family would be better served in a building w/this layout, maybe.
