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?
47 Willow Place [Corcoran] GMAP P*Shark
3.2 million in 2020.
renovated, but really only 2 1/2 floors. that top floor is like a scene right out of that being john malkovich movie (or the one after) I forget.
seriously, those rooms are just not rooms in my book. a room has windows, and a human-height ceiling.
12 Willow Place was a POS tho. This is renovated
property shark is often wrong on sq ft — but better than curbed etc.
5:46, you got me. when i first read it, i thought you were saying $3.2mn in 2020. i think that’s about right. 10mn. right…
this will sell around 3.2 million.
which will be an excellent price for both buyers and sellers.
in 2020, these homes will be selling for 10 million.
The garage is going condo – already announced
So, optimistically speaking, this place should go for 2m.
I agree that this is overpriced and will probably take a cut before selling. 2.8 to 3 range is a guess. But this is a very interesting street and Willowtown has a certain appeal to those (like me–but richer) who are architecture freaks. The houses on that block (and Columbia Place) are an oddball mix of everything from MCM to faux-Plantation to worker housing to charming woodframe. I walk down the block all the time and it is surprisingly not noisy considering closeness to BQE. Far from subway station, though. Not sure the impact of the garage, either. (Is that gonna be there forever? Hard to believe.)
