Here’s a killer FSBO house at 45 St. Pauls Place (a street that has the distinction of never having been mentioned on Brownstoner). The turn-of-the-century limestone is dripping in architectural details. Dripping. It’s also part of a group of similar houses which together present a pretty impressive face. The house—which is described as being a one-family with an in-law apartment—is asking $1,389,000. As stunning as the house is, a couple of questions come to mind: 1) Why no photos of kitchens or bathrooms?; 2) Isn’t it a stretch to describe this neighborhood as Prospect Park South? Granted, this isn’t our back yard, but we thought PPS didn’t start until Caton Avenue.

  1. To continue my above post –

    Although it was singled out as one of the most beautiful blocks in Flatbush, it was never considered to be part of PPS, which was a planned development bordered by Church Avenue, Buckingham, Beveley, and Coney Island Avenue. It is inaccurate historically and architecturally to lump this house, gorgeous as it is, with PPS.

  2. I assume b/c the plg bloggers posted info on the caledonian hospital that PLG started to the west of the parade grounds… regardless, you can say what you want but the stats don’t lie or that link I posted earlier. This neighborhood is full of section 8 and Kensington starts west of Coney Island Ave. The biggest issue we got is car break ins on occasion. But 2.32 the F train isn’t as bad as people think although I would LOVE it if it went express!

  3. me pick fights? not even close.

    anyway those who read enough blogs and forums know who i am. i dont pick fights at all. i just like to post in them. give me point of view to things.

  4. Screw that I live in Kensington and am black and could not wait to get away from Flatbush (over 15yrs there)..I don’t give a shit what anyone says there are serious issues in that neck of the woods..crime, crowds, noise. anytime someone bring up a real issue it has to be racist the hood is f’d up.
