House of the Day: 280 Park Place
We’re liking the old bones at 280 Park Place, a new (surprisingly nice) listing from Century 21. The four-story house is also well-suited to a condo conversion because of its two-story addition. That said, this would take a lot of dough to convert, and it’s not really in move-in condition for a two-family play either….

That said, this would take a lot of dough to convert, and it’s not really in move-in condition for a two-family play either. Given both those factors (and the fact that the market’s jittery), we don’t think that the asking price of $2,100,000 is realistic. More like $1,900,000.

Sorry, but I don’t agree, 2:48.
Prospect Heights is its own neighborhood…it has nice restaurants and bars on Vanderbilt. It also has it’s very own subway trains and much better access to Manhattan than Clinton Hill, which has neither transportation NOR services.
Which is why I don’t understand why most properties I see for sale are more expensive in Clinton Hill than they are in Prospect Heights.
And I live in Park Slope, so not saying any of this as a resident of either area, but just as a fellow Brooklynite who enjoys both areas, but I think of Prospect Heights as more of an actual neighborhood but Clinton Hill more as a bedroom community to Ft. Greene.
You’re funny, 2:46. I thought the same thing. Only more along the lines of, how lazy do you have to be to leave the bucket in the camera shot…IT’S GOT WHEELS!! for crying out loud. Roll it out of the way!
Oh, and I love that slide show…the music is great. That house is really dusty, though. Either it hasn’t been occupied in ages, or has not been well maintained. I’d be curious to know how old the plumbing and wiring are.
“Prospect Heights is Park Slopes Clinton Hill and like Clinton Hill the area keep growing not Prospect Heights ends at Franklin Ave.”
Prospect Heights is indeed to Park Slope, what Clinton Hill is to Fort Greene. And yes, both neighborhoods are quite small and the boundaries of what’s considered Prospect Heights and Clinton Hill keep ‘growing’. I just don’t understand the Franklin reference. This house appears to be on Park Place btwn. Vanderbilt and Underhill. To my knowledge, that’s still very much Prospect Heights. Am I missing something?
Stop with teh freakin condo conversion talk.
Overpriced by $250K
You don’t re-brownstone a facade.
there were also two shootings within two blocks of this place about 2 weeks ago.
So go to the C21 slideshow, listen to the music, then freeze on the kitchen photo. Stare close, listen to the msuci and thing.
WHAT IS IN THAT YELLOW BUCKET?
This listing is a joke.
Ghetto fabulous.
this is between vanderbilt and underhill. not vouching for the place, but doesn’t get more prospect heights than that
prospect heights just grew more.
I thought it ended at Washington
