House of the Day: 1230 Dean Street
As careful a renovation as the owner of 1230 Dean Street did, this place had no business being listed at $1,650,000. Which is why, after six weeks, the asking price has been reduced to $1,499,000. Unfortunately, we suspect that the three-car garage and landscaped garden won’t be enough to get the deal done at this…

Unfortunately, we suspect that the three-car garage and landscaped garden won’t be enough to get the deal done at this price. But don’t feel too bad for the sellers—after all, they bought the place for $427,450 back in 2004.

they should take those double-decker tourists buses up that stretch of atlantic. authentic nyc.
Nice renovation and back yard. Too bad it’s in a slum.
Montrose @ 2:00pm. I love how people rationalize how their little block is somehow cut off from everything, like some bunker.
This house is less than two blocks from Atlantic Ave, which in this stretch (basically anything from the Flatbush intersection to JFK airport) is one of the nastiest stretchs of urban roadway I have ever seen. Easily one of the worst in U.S.
You can pretend that Crown Heights and this house are on the moon if you want, but that’s the reality.
“Cause it is Crown Heights?”
Exactly.
$800,000 tops.
“Interestingly, some of the reno choices are good/fine, even nice, but other stuff is more outside of the bounds of a certain class-taste.”
What is that supposed to mean?
Now Atlantic Avenue is the deal breaker? The house is not on Atlantic Ave, it’s on Dean Street between Nostrand and New York, one of the most beautiful blocks in the Crown Heights North Historic District, surrounded by homes that are consistantly mentioned as residential architectural gems. Ghetto? Hardly.
this is not overpriced, 1:52.
this is called obscene.
there’s a difference.
Nice reno and beautiful backyard. Hope they get the asking price.Everything else is overpriced in all neighborhoods so why should this owner not ask? Cause it is Crown Heights?
thanks eric and candice davis….i mean 1:38!
i need some of the crack you two been smokin.
