House of the Day: 31 Prospect Park West Revisited
We’re not sure which rock we’ve been living under, but while we were asleep at the wheel 31 Prospect Park West has been in free-fall. The 2,800-square-foot one-family overlooking the park settled at $2,600,000 a couple of weeks ago, after starting at $3,250,000 in April and making stops at $2,995,000, $2,895,000 and $2,800,000 along the…

It’s now priced below $1,000 per foot and does have a driveway, so it’s gotta be getting close!

not any park slope home. . . this place is right across from the park!
btw, i’m not saying either one is worth the money in this market.
but you really can’t be seriuos that you’d rather take a place on prospect place instead of this one. no way.
I only mentioned it because the previous commenter seemed to suggest one would have to be a fool to not prefer this PS home over the Prospect Heights one, and I’d MOVE from my cherished hood, if those two homes were my options!
Sorry to come across that way. I hope you know I love all Brooklyn neighborhoods!
Yours included! Although I could stand to explore it a bit more…
11217..you’ve mentioned your cherished Park Slope abode a few times here…i’m sensing “neighborhood hypersensitivity syndrome”.
I live in Park Slope and love it, but I prefer the 210 Prospect Place house compared to this one.
Assuming there are no issues with the quality of the renovation, which some on here mentioned…
where are those of you who touted 210 prospect place as a bargain for $2.5M?
if that was a great deal than this is a ridiculous steal. . .
who in their right mind wouldn’t buy this one for just $100K more than that one?
“all of you who are surprised at this ‘low’ price are still living inside the bubble.”
Totally Agree!
“1 mil sounds about right to me…”
Well, I’d say more like 1.8M to 2M.
all of you who are surprised at this ‘low’ price are still living inside the bubble. 1 mil sounds about right to me…
Dave – I totally agree with you on the community aspect, which is why I thought it was a great area. Its also great for raising a family and you can’t beat $250 a square ft. More than half the lot has already been developed, which gave me some peace of mind. Your points are all valid and thanks for your input.
Smatchums….you see the flack I get from many about living in Bed Stuy. Everyone should live where they want and buy a house that suits their needs and taste. With developments like that, the community is the key. What you always have to watch out for is the developer’s quality of construction and that the developer is financially sound so that a lot of lots aren’t left vacant and units go unfinished
