When the Watchtower Group announced last spring that it would ratchet up the liquidation of its Brooklyn Heights holdings, one of the properties in the goody bag was 165 Columbia Heights, a two-story carriage house on one of the most desirable stretches of the Heights. For the last six years, the 4,172-square-foot house has been used as guest quarters for the Jehovah’s Witnesses. It looks to be in good shape and there’s a highly-coveted three-car garage as well. But still, $7,200,000? We shall see.

  1. you’re right, 3:19.

    carriage houses are almost ALWAYS priced higher than brownstones.

    take a look at the 3.5 million dollar one listed in clinton hill highlighted here a while back.

    a brownstone in clinton hill certainly isn’t fetching that amount anytime soon.

  2. If you like carriage houses, fine. HOWEVER, carriage houses are never priced the same as whole brownstones. So, why this one would be priced as much as a high-end Brooklyn Heights townhouse is beyond me.

  3. I agree that carriage houses have it over ordinary houses. They are rarer, roomier, and you canpark your car downstairs. Gimme a break. That is heaven. Especially to us car lovers who moved out of Manhattan because that place is too mass-transity.
