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?

the price seems a bit high, but who am I to comment, since the listing has no floor plan, doesn’t tell you how wide the house is, and basically provides no infomation. But, I remember seeing 2 houses on 6th street last summer that were as nice and about $500,000 less.
Sees like 2.995 is the asking price for these houses, but what are hey actually selling for? Does anyone know what accepted offers have been on similar houses this spring market? Seems like they are al over priced, but perhaps seller are holding out hope for that one buyer who is willing to pay despite housing drop predictions?
stoner, if you didn’t go to the OH, how do you know there’s no recessed lighting? looks from the photos like there’s at least a couple of cans in the kitchen. the horror!
The one you are referring to, 1:43 I don’t believe was in move in condition like this one.
People will pay a premium to have a house like this ready to go.
Please 1:42, did anybody actually go to an open house held on Mother’s Day?
I thought not.
Overpriced. Every open house I go to has a broker telling me that the price is negotiable. They all call the next day asking if I’d like to make an offer, any offer. That’s not how they acted 6 months ago. Sellers are still making them list high, but they all say the sellers need to here the lower offers for the reality check. Didn’t another house on this block just go into contract that was listed for about 2.4? I think it was only 18′, but this one isn’t a full 20′ either.
May we quote you on that, 1:38 when we find out the selling price?
I have it on good authority that more than one party at the open house yesterday are interested…
Gorgeous house, but overpriced by $500-800K.
I didn’t go to the open house but happened to walk by on my way home from the gym and FreshNYC and noticed a buzz of activity outside this house. I almost stopped in for the fun of it.
I’m happy in my home though. Don’t need another…
Yet.
