The brownstone at 462 Henry Street in Cobble Hill, which was shown for the first time yesterday, changed hands in late 2004 for $1,500,000. Since then, the owners have done a very high-end renovation of the lower owner’s duplex; there are three rental apartments on the top two floors. So, nice house, nice location, but is it gonna fetch the full asking price of $2,500,000 in this market? The closest comp is 459 Henry Street across the street, a house in much worse shape which sold last year for $1,730,000. Did anyone go to the open house?

  1. Another note to the appliance snobs: Viking and Sub-Zero are annually within the top three of appliance brands in need of service within the first year of ownership, according to Consumer Reports magazine.

  2. I live across the steet (not the mentioned comp) and the walk is a very pleasant 8 minutes, about 4 blocks, to the subway. Not at all unpleasant unless it’s raining and you’ve forgotten your umbrella. 🙂

    I don’t think the distance to the subway should have any effect on the price of this one. And this is coming from someone who spent 5 years living *above* the subway station before this, so considers myself among the spoiled- who normally complain about a 10 minute walk to the subway like some of the above posters…

  3. on the whole, 3:46 kitchenaid and kenmore…the nicer models are just as expensive and high quality, if not moreso than their european made counterparts.

    that was the point.

    don’t argue with things that aren’t there.

    if you hate kitchenaid because you have a gripe with the company…that’s fine. that’s your right.

    but to suggest that because someone has inferior appliances simply because of that, is ignorant, at best.

  4. Actually, when you work 10 hours, mostly at a desk more or less (or many, many more hours per day, as I was doing to afford my first apartment purchase), you really need that 10-15 minute walk to and from the subway – it is likely the only exercise you are getting during the week. The fresh air is good for you, too – the only fresh air you get all day. Make that “to” to subway, as you know you take a taxi or a black car home when you work late…
