House of the Day: 41 Howard Place
While this house at 41 Howard Place in Windsor Terrace is far from a steal on a per square foot basis, we suspect its charm and (relatively) unimposing price tag of $1,350,000 will lure a buyer fairly quickly.

While this house at 41 Howard Place in Windsor Terrace is far from a steal on a per square foot basis, we suspect its charm and (relatively) unimposing price tag of $1,350,000 will lure a buyer fairly quickly. (That, and the bragging rights of your block having been featured in a Jack Nicholson movie.) Another reason for optimism: the almost identical 19 Howard Place sold for $1,370,000 last September.

Hilarious. So true that those all-cement yards are very white-trash Brooklyn.
Container gardens are great, though, if the containers are high-end and well chosen and are the larger stone and ceramic kind. I’m surprised with how well staged the house is that they didn’t put even one nice large planter in back with an array of annuals or tulips.
Super cute house. Sort of agree with 2;13 about the yard – a shame there’s nothing green left, esp since it looks like it would get plenty of sun.
as per usual in NY the yard looks like some white-trash dream.
Rest of the house – very nice.
Cute, cute house and nice interior detailing. I don’t know about the price, $1.3mil for a house where I would instantly want to update both the kitchen and one of the baths? But, I’ve been surprised before; I’ll be surprised again.
Is it really something to brag about to say that you live on the block that was chosen to portray how pathetic the life was of a single mother waitress, exiled by poverty to the hopelessly out-of-it and inconvenient outer boroughs…?
ha ha – little do they know. Of course this is a charming block, neighborhood and house. But not I would mention the movie…
1:45, I can see it. House wasn’t worth that much when the movie was made. Also, could have been her mom’s house and in family for generations, which is, or at least was, fairly common in WT.
Only in the movies — a waitress supporting her son and mom, living in a $1.35 million house! Anyway, it’s very overpriced, but nicely staged.
1:36, I agree about it being well presented and doing the most with what they have. I think the pink and turquoise sinks, toilets and tubs are pretty groovy.
What a pretty little house!
