House of the Day: 207 Berkeley Place
It’s amazing that in this day and age a brownstone in prime Park Slope would still be listed the old-fashioned way—with a hand-made picket sign in the front yard—but such is the case with 207 Berkeley Place.

It’s amazing that in this day and age a brownstone in prime Park Slope would still be listed the old-fashioned way—with a hand-made picket sign in the front yard—but such is the case with 207 Berkeley Place. (Cementing the broker’s old-school cred is the accompanying ad in the Village Voice—remember when that was the starting point for any apartment hunt?) The 4-story, 2-family house is being offered through Roy Manganelli (at 718-768-8888) for $2,900,000 $2,700,000. The house is divided into two duplexes and looks like the original details are very much intact, albeit in some need of a spruce-up. We’re guessing that, even though the sign just went up a few days ago, one of you has already checked it out. So cough up the goods!

“…your thoughts on what a fully restored brownstone in this part of park slope would sell for…”
depends on what “fully restored” entails, but could be 3.5
does anyone know what happened to that other “gem in the rough” in Cobble Hill that everyone was bickering back a few months back — 44? Strong Place? I heard the price was dropped and that it was still on the market. Seems that one is ripe for the picking. I saw it at an early open house and would think it would be worth close to $4m with a full renovation, given what’s selling right around the corner.
Hello,
Love the interest our place is getting on brownstoner! Christian and slopehead are right on both accounts (although I have had a pleasant time with Bulgarians). If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to give me or the owners son a call. His number is (608)347-9619 and he goes by Hristo. Thanks again for the interest!
does the broker’s last name mean “eater of Nelli”?
if i’m not mistaken, the owner passed away.
I went to visit the brownstone late last week and itz to die for! I would check other listings in the area because I heard the owners are Bulgarian and we all know how bulgarians can be a little “non-truthy” when it comes to home sales.
sorry to post yet again, but i was curious your thoughts on what a fully restored brownstone in this part of park slope would sell for, in your opinion?
i don’t see too many listed, so it’s hard to judge.
also forgot to mention…the agent said to bring your contractor, he can let you know how much work might be involved, and then make an offer.
you are right, i think they are shooting for the stars in terms of price, but i think (restored) this would be just one of the loveliest places around…
A beautiful marriage of listing naiveté (give it to Corco already) and greed. Old school picket listing didn’t stop the owner from shooting for the stars on ask price.
That said, it’s prime so it will sell.
