House of the Day: 436 Classon Avenue
This three-family Greek Revival at 436 Classon Avenue has a wonderful parlor floor and a front porch to boot, but we’ve got no idea what the owners are thinking asking $2,165,000 million on this street. We can’t think of a house within three blocks of this place that has fetched even $1,500,000. Keep on dreamin’….

“Numerous” reputable and high-end establishments. How many is “numerous”? Three? And what counts as high-end in your mind? $20 an entree?
Give me a break.
thanks broker at 2:11!!!!
I agree with 2:11. . .it’s overpriced by nearly 50%!
since everyone is bashing it, let me point out a few reasons why its not as crazy as all that.
1. the house is 20 by 60 – that means 1200 sq feet per floor – if it is indeed divided as a 3 family that would be around $700,000 per apartment. thats not far from most of the 1200 sq foot apts in the area, and if it were reduced a few hundred grand, it starts to make a lot more sense.
2. classen is developing extremely quickly, the derelict establishments like the bodega on clifton and classon are all gone, and numerous reputable and high end establishments are opening quickly.
3. no broker invented the term “clinton hill” – its an historic district – look it up. speak what you know.
If this place was anything close to 1,500,000 it would be a crazy steal.

Here is an example of what a smart person does with the economic news and what a not so smart person does with it.
1. The not so smart person whines and cries on an anonymous blog about how bad the economy is and how the world is coming to an end and that all homeowners are stupid.
2. A smart person buys stock of Bear Stearns for $2 on Monday morning and sells on Tuesday afternoon for $6.80 (it’s current price).
I’m so glad I’m in category number 2.
I hear the Fed loaned $3,000,000 to JP Morgan Chase to buy this building.
Ugly house attached to an uglier house in an ugly neighborhood.
PR stunt. Not real.
