House of the Day: 106 Lincoln Place
Except for the recessed lighting on the parlor floor (and the lack of some crown moldings), the brownstone at 106 Lincoln Place in Park Slope is looking pretty tasty. (The single-family house is one of six in a row designed by Brooklyn architect F. B. Langston in the late 1880s.) There’s some drool-worthy woodwork and…
Except for the recessed lighting on the parlor floor (and the lack of some crown moldings), the brownstone at 106 Lincoln Place in Park Slope is looking pretty tasty. (The single-family house is one of six in a row designed by Brooklyn architect F. B. Langston in the late 1880s.) There’s some drool-worthy woodwork and a permanent parking space to boot. The price of $3,150,000 feels pretty 2007 to us but it’s certainly not impossible for something like this in move-in condition.

my eccentric uncle has no money, just personality.
Are you sure you have to be rich to buy one of these 3M dollar houses?
But when my parent, grandparent and eccentric uncle all died recently in a Zeppelin crash and left me $3 million dollars, I couldn’t read the will properly because we didn’t have recessed lighting. The lawyers got everything.
“That recessed lighting would be a bit harsh on my waxed moustache and bowler hat”.
OK that made me laugh so hard i fell off of my chair… nice
2:43 Yes, you may be able to buy this house making $85k/yr. and I know others who have.
Here’s how: Your (parent, grandparent, or eccentric great uncle) died recently leaving you $3 million dollars. You put a million down, put the rest into income bearing securities and rent out the garden apartment.
It’s not necessarily a great strategy but it happens…a lot.
you can get the same house in other parts of bk 2:43 just not in Park Slope.
three years ago, 2:43 could have gotten a mortgage for this house.
Agreed about the bowling hat and buggy whip. If I had recessed lighting then everyone would see the lines in my bodice from my corset.
Nope…imagine that, 2:43….85k a year and you don’t deserve a 3 million dollar house!
CRAZY TALK!
‘These homes are for wealthy people and that is who is buying them’
I make 85K a year…you mean I can’t buy this house?
