House of the Day: 40 2nd Place
Optimism knows no bounds in Carroll Gardens. Already in this young year we’ve chronicled two listings that have come out of the box at over $3 million. (One of them, 78 3rd Place appears to have been yanked reduced to $2,950,000 in the wake of 250+ comments mocking the ridiculousness of asking $3,495,000 for the…
Optimism knows no bounds in Carroll Gardens. Already in this young year we’ve chronicled two listings that have come out of the box at over $3 million. (One of them, 78 3rd Place appears to have been yanked reduced to $2,950,000 in the wake of 250+ comments mocking the ridiculousness of asking $3,495,000 for the 3,100-square-foot pad.) Today’s house of the day at 40 2nd Place is slightly less ambitious at $2,800,000. Still, at less than 16 feet wide and sporting a renovation that feels too “new” looking in that suburban kind of way, we’re not holding our breath about this one getting anywhere close to ask either. For what it’s worth, the 2,300-square-foot house last sold in 2004 for $1,700,000.
40 2nd Place [Corcoran] GMAP P*Shark
2:06-you say that inventory is starting to grow. Corcoran lists 3 brownstones in all of carroll/cobble and brown harris lists 2. I would hardly call this a glut. I think prices are crazy but don’t argue that inventory is high.
Where is The What to put this loony listing in perspective?
As I chuckle and scan the rentals, I concur with 2:06 … or to paraphrase TW, Someday this war is gonna START.
Late summer sounds about right. Reality will sink in after a flat spring selling season, despite Berwanky’s desperate money-printing.
Wow – the brokers are out in full force on this thread!! I haven’t seen this much pumping since Brokeback Mountain.
Brokers – do yourselves a favor – if the market’s this hot [laughtrack], try selling the stuff that’s already been sitting on the market for months at lower $$/sf.
Or… rush off to Europe in search of dumb money.
IF and only if bathrooms and rest of house are up to par with what’s shown in the pictures, then I’d say $2.3 max.
FireFox is for communists
There is not enough room for a center stair in a 16-footer. I don’t see it in the photos. It’s physically awkward and the result would be wasted valuable space on either side of the stair.
Corcoran floorplans don’t open on Firefox–you have to use Explorer. It would “behoove” Corcoran’s web people to fix that glitch.
The agents are behooved because they did include. Just need to click where it say ‘Floorplan’ and you can see it.
$2.2 TOPS.
