House of the Day: 78 3rd Place
When did average-sized houses in Carroll Gardens start being worth over $3 million? Whenever it was, we didn’t get the memo. Last month, it was 44 1st Place, a generally attractive but inconsistent four-story house asking $3,842,500. (One reader wrote us a particularly nasty email about our stance on that post.)

Now it’s 78 3rd Place, a 3,100-square-foot, three-story brick that, while 23-feet-wide and full of charm, doesn’t feel like it’s worth quite $3,495,000.

1.59pm refrigerator comment–there is no mention of that on website or in the photos. Do you realize you just outed yourself as the broker or seller? Or are you going to tell me you’re the “friend” of the hedge-funder?
People…wayyyyyy overpriced, YES; BUT, they are selling FAR not this house. This is a Developer special my friends.
Price is fair. It comes with complementary asshats for the whole family.
1:59–you just gave yourself away.
wow–broker/seller got on the case RIGHT away.
Don’t know any hedge-funders that would settle for a 3-story house.
They are moving from a 2 bedroom on the Upper West Side, which they just recently sold for over 3 million.
They don’t care about more house for the money. They fell in love with this house.
1.56 – great I hope they’re offering under $2m
BTW…the “550 dollar refrigerator” is in the 1 bedroom rental unit.
The main kitchen has all stainless steel appliances.
