House of the Day: 74 Lincoln Road
When 74 Lincoln Road was an Open House Pick back in early May, it had the optimistic price tag of $1,395,000; last week that asking price was trimmed to $1,295,000. This baby’s a charmer, to be sure: An unattached Colonial Revival house with lots of detail and in excellent shape; to top it off, it’s…
When 74 Lincoln Road was an Open House Pick back in early May, it had the optimistic price tag of $1,395,000; last week that asking price was trimmed to $1,295,000. This baby’s a charmer, to be sure: An unattached Colonial Revival house with lots of detail and in excellent shape; to top it off, it’s got a driveway and garage. Still, they’re not giving it away. Do you think this price cut will make a difference?

Open House Picks 5/9/08 [Brownstoner]
1.5 blocks to the park, less than that to express subway. I’m a little baffled how location is a big problem.
It’s a gorgeous house, but huge.
Seven bedrooms gives one pause.
It’s a lovely house though for someone with the means to pay for the upkeep and the heat.
I’ll stick with my 3-bedroom co-op.
I saw this at an open house awhile ago. It is lovely. The layout has issues, but the big problem is location. Personally, it is still overpriced by 300K. But it is all a question of what you want and what you can live with.
Good luck, 1:45 at getting ANY house in Brooklyn near the park for $600K! Dream on. Try Brownsville. Some people missed the boat and are really in denial.

House of the Day (307 Winthrop Street) was an example of what that price range gets you in PLG–no comparison to this house.
Well, from someone who has actually seen the house (shocker on brownstoner!) for those who truly love old houses it’s worth going inside because the photos on the listing don’t even begin to show the details in the house. Lots of stained glass and leaded glass. Dramatic ornate fireplaces in both great hall and DR. Original light fixtures, original doorknobs. I had no idea, looking at the outside of these large but simple looking craftsman era houses.
1:45. What are you talking about? This house is in Brooklyn, not Cleveland.
This house is over valued by about $500-600k. It will never appraise for anything higher then the $600’s.
no.
