House of the Day: 47 Willow Place

47 Willow Place (along with its three sister houses at 43, 45 and 49) is one of those houses that makes Brooklyn Heights such a special place. The 21-foot-wide Greek Revival structure is particularly notable for the colonnade that runs continuously along the facade of all four houses. The $3,450,000 asking price is on the low end for a house in this neighborhood, but then again there’s only about 2,100 square feet of living space (not including the basement rec area) in this one. 49 Willow Place traded for $2,300,000 back in 2004, though we have no idea what kind of shape it was in. This house, though, has been recently renovated. So what do you think?

Cool it Montrose it is right next to the BQE. Very polluted and noisy area. The asshats are the listing agents.
1:43, while the property taxes may seem low don’t forget we pay almost 3% in city income taxes on top of that. i think it’s a fairly safe assumption that folks buying houses in this price range will have a total tax bill that rivals those in westchester.
I’m going to disagree with the masses. Historically unique and important row of BH houses. Tucked back around on a quiet street, far from the madding crowd. From the pix and description, looks great. Hey, it’s got central air. Around here, that alone….
For someone wanting to live in the Heights, in a cool house, no tenants, you expect to pay this, and I bet someone will.
“Grow up” = most childish insult on this thread.
my 3 year old has just taken to saying it.

Nice house with a great price tag. bring it on. lets go bklyn equity!
Stop being children and throwing cheap, poorly crafted insults. Grow up.
Pokey house with lovely view of BQE. Watch it sit.
