House of the Day: 273 Baltic Street
This listing at 273 Baltic Street is just popped up on Corcoran—unfortunately without any photos.

This listing at 273 Baltic Street is just popped up on Corcoran—unfortunately without any photos. According to the verbiage, it’s “fully renovated,” complete with central air, a Viking range and a custom media center. We’re guessing that this reno leans toward the modern: “The second floor is accessed via a unique hand made hanging metal staircase which is supported entirely by it’s wall which gives it the appearance of floating from one level to the next.” For $1,995,000 for a three-story, 16-foot-wide house, the reno better be pretty darn nice. Without any pictorial evidence to the contrary, the price sounds like a reach to us.

8:57, this house is not in Cobble Hill. Cobble Hill is a designated landmarked area which ends on the west side of Court. You can check the map out online but this is clearly not Cobble Hill. I think the brokers are trying to make the property sound more desirable than it is.
Who ever bought that 13 footer for 2 million should have his head examined.
then every buyer in manhattan needs to have their head examined since studios are selling there for a million bucks in some buildings now.
please wake up and smell the roses. a full house…13 feet…16 feet whatever is certainly worth 2 million to some people when they are cashing in on a 2 bedroom 20 minutes away.

Who ever bought that 13 footer for 2 million should have his head examined.
Think about it. That person could have paid only $2.00 a day and live on the F train subway car. That’s about a 13 footer, right?
Again, has anyone looked at this floorplan? There’s not much living space on the parlor floor. And I don’t think I would want a “large welcoming vestibule with storage enough for coats and bikes” as my front entrance.
There was a 13 ft. House of the Day in Carroll Gardens that went for 2 million over the summer and when it came on Brownstoner everyone said that it would not sell. This 16 footer in Cobble Hill will go for 1.9 mil easy.
I live in this area. Prices are high. New condos on Carroll Street and also on 2nd Place each sold for about 950k per floor in 25×50 buildings. Rather than own 2 floors in a condo building, many people would prefer 3 and 1/2 floors and own the building. I looked this building up on the DOB website and there have not been any work permits since before 1999. I am suspicous of the renovations. Finally, the building is in Cobble Hill. Its location near a troubled middle school does not remove it from the neighborhood. It might not be prime, but it is in the neighborhood.
12:13 – work on wallstreet! (to get into the 0.1%)
i just google streetmapped it. looks like a school right across the street. awesome shot of a bunch of kids hanging out front. just where I want to live.
reminds me of this place in the city where the price kept dropping. finally I streetmapped it and there was a shot of a bar with like 10 drunk people standing out front. wonder why the price went down.
ps. how the hell do you get into the .1%?
Petebklyn post 4:19, have you ever been to this block? To call it Cobble Hill is a joke and inaccurate. It’s across from a frightening middle school (I lived across from it on Butler Street for 3 years, so I know.) It’s one of the worst blocks in the entire vicinity of Cobble Hill, Caroll Gardens, Boerum Hill. Perhaps you may want to check things out prior to spewing off inaccurate facts. These so-called high-roller clients you speak of wouldn’t consider this listing.
