House of the Day: 75 Fenimore Street
Here’s an interesting FSBO. The 1,872-square-foot brick house at 75 Fenimore Street is a comfortable-looking four-bedroom with its own driveway and garage. According to the Prospect Lefferts Gardens Historic District Designation Report, the house, which was built around 1920, is particularly notable for its “steep slate mansard roods and ornamental doorway enframements.” The asking price…

Here’s an interesting FSBO. The 1,872-square-foot brick house at 75 Fenimore Street is a comfortable-looking four-bedroom with its own driveway and garage. According to the Prospect Lefferts Gardens Historic District Designation Report, the house, which was built around 1920, is particularly notable for its “steep slate mansard roods and ornamental doorway enframements.” The asking price of $825,000 seems reasonable to us, but none of the similar houses to either side have changed hands in recent years so close comps aren’t available; a three-story brownstone across the street at 74 Fenimore Street changed hands for $550,000 in 2003. Think this’ll move at this price?

Right on, 1:34. I suppose some people would complain about having a washer/dryer or fireplace given the risks of overflowing and fire.
All that work to put together a website, and no pics of the kitchen, bathrooms or bedrooms?
There is a similar house for sale on my street in Kensington. It’s not that pretty on the outside and maybe smaller?, but it’s cheaper, in a very safe area and zoned for a good public school (p.s. 230)
This is near Church Av. stop on the F

Have to say, this is the first time I’ve seen having a driveway and a garage has been a negative, in this town. (because you share?) Some people have to find a negative side for everything and every place.
Very nice FSBO, indeed! And I’m totally digging the peace sign, although it might deter some John McCain supporters.
How’s that area?
“If, as both the floorplan and Property Shark say, the lot is 24′ wide how can the living room be 18’wide and the driveway 12′?”
Shared driveway. See pics.
Me again 1:27 – I get it now – they share 6′ of their lot with next door’s to make the driveway 12′. I would hope the title comes with easement rights in that case.
Nice looking place. Don’t know much about the area. And looks like it shares the driveway with the neighbor. Drunken fender-bender funny business to ensue.
