House of the Day: 475 4th Street
This two-family brownstone at 475 4th Street in Park Slope just hit the market for $2,995,000. It’s a gorgeous house in move-in condition with tons of original woodwork (and no recessed lighting!). It also feels like it’s priced as if it were a year ago. Frankly, we’ve got no idea how this will fly. It…

This two-family brownstone at 475 4th Street in Park Slope just hit the market for $2,995,000. It’s a gorgeous house in move-in condition with tons of original woodwork (and no recessed lighting!). It also feels like it’s priced as if it were a year ago. Frankly, we’ve got no idea how this will fly. It certainly is a nice enough place that a potential buyer could fall in love and just have to have it; on the other hand, we wouldn’t be surprised to see it ultimately fetch a couple hundred grand less. What do you think? There was an open house yesterday. Did anyone check it out?

across from the high school. Sorry, but that merits a discount, no matter how nice the house.
i think it will sell for around 2.5 if the sellers dont need to move soon.
Who cares if it’s a little overpriced. It’s a 3 million dollar house. Aren’t we really just splitting hairs here at this point??
Looks like a great house but it’s relatively small, which could affect the price. I’m guessing it’s a 19×40 floorplate on 19×80 lot. So the owner’s triplex is less than 2300 sf and the garden rental is less than 800 sf. The garden is probably the same size as would exist for a deeper house on a deeper lot (assuming comparable width).
2:06, here…there is indeed a floorplan. My bad! But, I still think it’s a bit overpriced.
It’s right across from that somewhat “rough” high school. Anyone think that will affect value/bids?
The yard is not “unusually deep.” According to the floorplan it is 39’3″.
The plot is typical size, but the house is just not that deep, perhaps giving the illusion of a deeper backyard.
gorgeous house, terrible paint colors.
2:06 – there actually is a floorplan. It looks like the garden is unusually deep, though it’s hard to know without info on specific dimensions.
This is a prime Park Slope townhouse. It will certainly be interesting to see what this ultimately sells for in this market.
