House of the Day: $8.75 Million in Cobble Hill?
Holy Moly! This has got to be the nicest house on the market right now. It’s a 25-foot-wide Greek Revival house overlooking Verandah Park in Cobble Hill with a stand-alone carriage house in the rear.

Holy Moly! This has got to be the nicest house on the market right now. It’s a 25-foot-wide Greek Revival house overlooking Verandah Park in Cobble Hill with a stand-alone carriage house in the rear. All in, it’s got 7,000 square feet of living space and enough parking space for four cars. Judging from the photos, there’s recently been a top-of-the-line renovation as well that preserved the house’s many original details while creating a beautiful, huge modern kitchen. Okay, so the desirability of the house ain’t in question. How about the price? Think $8.75 million will fly? This would have to be a record for Cobble Hill, wouldn’t it?

Even “Wall Street types” encounter hard times.
“a wall street type that’s not going to be much affected by what happens in subprime or at Merrill Lynch”
LMFAO!!!
I wouldn’t look at this as desperation, but a very calculated potential transaction. I know who the owner is and he’s a wall street type that’s not going to be much affected by what happens in subprime or at Merrill Lynch. He’s putting an offering out and seeing if he gets lifted or countered. Nothing wrong with floating a high price. Sometimes you get surprised.
You’d have to have grown up in that house and struck it rich to pay that price.
3:34 Either guts or desperation.
All it takes is one sucker to buy the Realtor’s hype [7000 sq ft, mews carriage house, a lifestyle unheard of…ugh] and pay 4 million for parking.
distressed seller fishing for record price? takes guts
Everyone here is a big pussy. Hell yes 8 million why not its got 4 garage/ carriage house and NYC is the greatest city in the world. 8 million sounds good to me. we live in the greatest city in the world what is wrong with you people 8 million bring it on. Bring it on My house just went up in value. 8 million.yes indeed..
