House of the Day: 401 Prospect Avenue
Here’s an interesting one…Behind the traditional exterior at 401 Prospect Avenue between 7th and 8th in the South Slope, someone’s done a very modern makeover that looks pretty successful to us. The layout is very open, the finishes clean and the windows large. We suspect there’s a subset of house hunters who this will appeal…
Here’s an interesting one…Behind the traditional exterior at 401 Prospect Avenue between 7th and 8th in the South Slope, someone’s done a very modern makeover that looks pretty successful to us. The layout is very open, the finishes clean and the windows large. We suspect there’s a subset of house hunters who this will appeal to, especially because it’s priced at $1,250,000. Of course, the house is a smallish (as far as houses go) 2,000 square feet. But that’s certainly plenty of room for a one-family. Think it’ll fly? Update: A reader pointed us to the old listing for this place. Go to townsleyandgay.com and scroll down to property 83. Or check out the screen capture on the jump.

you’re right, 2:18.
next time i’ll string the letters y and a together and call myself super creative.
by the way, next time you quote a word like “typical”, it would be more appropriate if the word were actually prior.
but your use of the quotes is quite creative indeed.
i bet 2:15’s home looks like pretty “typical”
ur so creative with that “anonymous” handle, too
i think the only people that fall into that trap are those without any sense of individuality or creativity to speak of.
oh right…this is new york.
this is nicely done, should be a source of inspiration for renovators..too often we are trapped into thinking that a townhouse/brownstone must look like a page out of “restoration hardware”
What’s gonna be in the lot next to the house, I wonder?
no windsor terrace starts at PPW (or 9th ave as we call it)
sorry to be the neighborhood police, but i think that’s windsor terrace.
how are they getting 2000+ SF out of a 11x 50 ft over 3 floors?
Can you have a bedroom with no side windows?
2000 square feet is small for a house, but for those thinking about new modern condos, this offers more space (plus a yard) than the 3 BR condos on the market in Park Slope. This will sell. One concern would be that water and dampness doesn’t get in the back of the house there, where the glass doors are. They look to be flush to the ground. The inspector should look at that carefully.
