78-3rd-place-Brooklyn-0108.jpg
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. Are we just out of touch with the Carroll Gardens market or sellers overreaching?

  1. and you’ll be saying the same exact thing about this place in another 5 years, 10:21.

    and those listing comps above are not exactly comps. those are either 3 or 4 family.

    isn’t is this idiotic bronwstoner crowd that says it costs a million bucks to transform a multi-family to a single or double family???

    so there you go. this one is a million bucks higher to reflect that.

    they are just taking their price cues from you morons!

  2. 230 Degraw sold for $3.4 million dollars. Yes, I was shocked and it is across the street from Cobble Hill, but technically in Carroll Gardens. So there are buildings at 3 million plus in CG. But 230 Degraw is large and gorgeous inside (at least what you can see from the street looks that way!) so I agree that this place is way overpriced.

  3. I think all of these people screaming about how charming their Park Slope real estate is need to be honest with us. Where in the evergrowing “Park Slope” do you live?

    If you live in one of those incredible building on the park then you have a right to brag. Some of those places are incredible. However if you live on 14th st between 5th and 6th avenue then you likely live in boring outerborough buildings that look like half of Brooklyn and Queens(if yours is nice then you know the building next door is ugly). And if you plan on living in the Novo on 4th avenue, then you will live across the street from Pep Boys so do not brag about charm!

    Everyone else in Park Slope asks the exact same questions that people in Carroll Gardens ask:

    Why didn’t I buy a building in Brooklyn 5 years earlier?
    How the hell do my neighbors afford their apartment since they do not really seem to work?
    Where am I going to fit everyone when I have my second kid?

    So, get over yourself:-)

Investor Loser still go fuck your self!! The Finance Dept building tax code does not mean the house is that code. The house maybe a 2 family or a rooming house. You will have to go downtown to look for a C of O. Plus I would explain more shit to you but, you are a assraped dumb fuck.
