House of the Day: 132 Cambridge Place
Well, there’s not a lot we can say about this three-story house at 132 Cambridge Place other than the asking price of $599,000 has got to be the lowest price we’ve seen for a house seen in Clinton Hill in years. The three-family house is bound to need a considerable amount of work, but we…
Well, there’s not a lot we can say about this three-story house at 132 Cambridge Place other than the asking price of $599,000 has got to be the lowest price we’ve seen for a house seen in Clinton Hill in years. The three-family house is bound to need a considerable amount of work, but we wouldn’t be surprised if there’s an historic facade lurking behind the linoleum siding. (And if there’s not, LPC will make you recreate one!) Has anyone been inside?

brooklynluv – Google Streetview has a glitch (I noticed it before) at the southern end of Cambridge Place. The screen view changes to Lefferts Place between St. James and Grand Avenue if you move to close to the intersection of Fulton Street. You can get to about 142 Cambridge Place before this glitch happens. Have a look at 142, then rotate south to look towards Fulton. If you zoom in, you’ll see it on the right.
I think this is a deal if there are no tenant issues and if you can live somewhere else while doing the overhall and restoration. Downside is the proximity the brightly lit CleanRite onthe corner of Fulton, though you might not be able to see that from this house, I’m not sure.
Brooklyns da Boro – it is part of the landmark district (see the DOB site).
I’m not sure if its Landmarked. According to the Map;
http://www.nyc.gov/html/lpc/downloads/pdf/maps/clinton_hill.pdf
The last house on that block that is landmarked is 128 Cambridge just making 132 short of landmark status. Unless somthing has recently changed.
qis4quincy…rather “quincey” don’t you think!!!
Anybody know if LPC allows Hardieboard for use as a replacement for clapboards. That stuff is amazing. This would make a beautiful house with a Mansard roof.
nice color 🙂
It’s Landmarked!
There’s also an ECB violation. I beleive, You have to clear that up, otherwise DOB won’t issue a permit for new work.
I saw this listing the other day. 132 Cambridge place does not look like this house on google streetview. Not sure if google is wrong….or if there is something fishy going on here.
oh please – tear-down? I’m sure there’s great stuff under the facade.
Oh yes. It’s definitely in the historic district. I’m 99% sure it’s not a legal three family house though. They have an HPD violation for converting it to three units, and there is no MDR number. Any building that is legally converted to a multiple dwelling, or was a multiple dwelling back in the day would have an MDR number. Still, an interesting property.
