House of the Day: 144 Underhill Avenue
This 4-story, 23-foot wide brownstone at 144 Underhill Avenue is a beauty but it’s priced as if it were on the other side of Flatbush Avenue. The more we look at the photos of this place, the more we like it—the woodwork, the multiple exposures, the old extension. (Don’t forget the two-car garage.) It all…
This 4-story, 23-foot wide brownstone at 144 Underhill Avenue is a beauty but it’s priced as if it were on the other side of Flatbush Avenue. The more we look at the photos of this place, the more we like it—the woodwork, the multiple exposures, the old extension. (Don’t forget the two-car garage.) It all adds up to one heck of a place. We just don’t think the market’s ready to bear a $2,750,000 asking price in this location yet.

Bad area of Prospect Heights. Lots of crime, desolate. Not worth $2.7 or anywhere near it.
You can buy a perfect home on Lincoln Place in PS for this price. Or 3rd Street.
that ivy is REALLY bad for the facade. i would bet there is some serious damage under there. it might look pretty, but it’s just about the worst thing for the exterior of any home…
I’m a little confused about the layout. From the floorplans the kitchen in the photos is actually in the ground floor rental. The upper triplex has a small central 4th flr kitchen. That’s not appropriate for a house at this price. The multiple satelite dishes on the roof indicate the building was more broken up at some point.
There are 2 narrower places for sale right around the corner for $1M less each.
This is a beautiful house. I’d even say that the outside is more stunning than the inside, which while retaining some detail, leaves much to be desired. The kitchen is on the 3rd floor–which is very impractical and expensive to change. This particular location does not merit the price tag, however, no matter how nice the house.
this is not the safest area.
there have been multiple drive by shootings this year on Underhill right near the playground.
that said, the house is great…for around 2 million.
no way, jose. Keep dreamin’.
Love that the house is semi-attached and has all those side windows. That has to worth something.
oh, and one of those 3rd Street houses is actually 22′ wide.
