House of the Day: 547 9th Street
At the asking price of $1,600,000, this three-story limestone at 547 9th Street in Park Slope is the best deal we’ve seen in a long, long time.

At the asking price of $1,600,000, this three-story limestone at 547 9th Street in Park Slope is the best deal we’ve seen in a long, long time. The 3,000-square-foot two-family bay-front is located on a park block and dripping in historic details. The Orrichio Anderson listing says that the lower duplex will require a full renovation; since the floors, woodwork and walls all look in good shape, we assume they mean new bathrooms, kitchens, heating, etc. We bet $300,000 would go a long way here for someone with a little creativity and then look what you’ve got. Fantastic.

Denton, is yours the center slope 2 family brick for $1,095,000 or the south slope 2 family with parking for $799k?
I think it runs right up the butt crack of the Slope shacking, shacking, shacking houses all the way to Windsor Terrace where it suddenly runs quiet as a little mouse.
It never ceases to amaze me how many people are jealous of those who live in Park Slope.
If you make a nasty comment about an entire neighborhood of 65,000 people, it is quite obvious to anyone with half a brain that you wish you lived there.
It’s psychology 101.
Lokking at the map, I can’t see why the F train would run under this house. Do you think it runs all the way up 9th under the street and then turns down PPW? Doesn’t it go straight from 7th ave to 15th st?.
“Can someone tell me why some houses have pier mirrors and some have fireplaces in the parlor.. What is the deal with the large mirror? Why did the architects put them in these houses?”
The mirrors establish when a desire to look at one self first began to take precedent in Park Slope over the very real human necessities such as warmth, food and love. This marked the beginning of the era of delusion in Park Slope where its inhabitants pushed strollers around believing that Park Slope was the center of the universe.
The term “Dork Alert” is a dead giveaway that a nitwit has just posted.
“I can only imagine what a house they describe as ‘needing renovation’ requires”
F train below = structural damage?
Hmm, I bought a house recently from this broker that was described as ‘needing TLC’. It really needed a gut rehab. I can only imagine what a house they describe as ‘needing renovation’ requires.
Some houses in PS have pier mirrors for the really hot guys to check themselves out before going to the Park.
The fireplaces are for pigroasts, or roasting gurgling cod.
