House of the Day: 905 Lincoln Place
Here’s a new listing that probably would have been priced $100,000 or $200,000 higher a few months ago. It’s a three-story, two-family limestone at 905 Lincoln Place in Crown Heights. The block is lovely and the house has amazing wood moldings and floors; no word on the bathrooms and kitchens. Anyway, there’s something refreshingly solid…

Anyway, there’s something refreshingly solid about this one: Beautiful but not grandiose house priced at a level that a non-Wall Street family can afford. Think it’ll go for the asking price?

price is reasonable, but not great.
I agree with other posters who say lame floor plan is definitely a deal breaker. . .
with a 3-story, 2-fam, it is much better to have the top two floors to yourself and the garden rental.
otherwise you lose primo space to stairs and common areas.
i doubt if it’s really 3400 square feet, but whatever
What ever happened with that Corco house at 1094 Park Place?
These stats don’t mean a whole lot. The spectrum of houses that sell in a given year can vary a lot (in terms of quality, address, condition, etc.). Real estate numbers are actually really hard to accurately quantify. Look at Manhattan: In one year there were three sales over $50 million which totally skewed the year-end averages.
Boerum Hill prices are down? A Dean Street townhouse that just went on the market for over $3 million had 40 sign-ins at the first open house.
Nice house, decent block, close to subways. I’d say this goes for 825’ish.
If the 3400 sq feet is accurate, thats about $250/sq foot, which is what other houses in Crown Heights have sold for. That was in the past, not sure how low CH will be repriced in 2008.
So Crain’s is saying that Carroll Gardens + Boerum Hill had the most sales and the largest price declines? I doubt it.
All protestants are anti-papists by definition.
These people are Corcoran real estate agents drawing the plans not architects.. most of the time the plans are not right.
Hey 2:05, I got called an idol-worshipper by a Southern Baptist once in college, and this was in 1990! So even a hundred years later we see anti-papist sentiment down South. Of course they’re nuts, the evangelicals. I’m flattered if they don’t like me.
