House of the Day: 1094 Park Place
This beauty at 1094 Park Place in Crown Heights caught our eye as an Open House Pick last fall when it was on the market with Corcoran for $1,395,000.
This beauty at 1094 Park Place in Crown Heights caught our eye as an Open House Pick last fall when it was on the market with Corcoran for $1,395,000. It didn’t find any takers at that price back then, and it’s now being reoffered by Massey Knakal for $1,200,000. While that’s still a lot of dough for a house in Crown Heights in this market, at least it’s in move-in condition. And while some of the new kitchen finishes aren’t exactly to our liking, you won’t be lacking for cold storage space! And the covered driveway ain’t too shabby either.

“…it may not sell for over a mil. It’s really too bad.”
Why too bad?
Here’s the classic real estate dilemma of having the nicest house on your street. Or, in this case, your neighborhood. I’d love to airlift it to the west side of brooklyn.
I just can’t see this place selling for over $1 million. And that’s too bad, because it really is a gem. I hope whoever buys it is a good caretaker.
“Do the GDP haters believe the numbers when they are down, or only question them when they are up?”
No. When they’re reported down, they’re really worse. The goverment will always be more optimistic than realistic. But don’t mind me, keep sheepin’.
Congrats on your Quixtar downline!
You know it’s around the corner from Albany Houses when you see the security devices on each and every kitchen window.

First half of the year has been great for my biz and it’s also true we’re exporting like crazy.
“Gross domestic product rose at a 3.3 percent”
There are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
I saw this house when it was on the market last fall. When I say this house is perfect, I mean it. Restored to perfection. The kitchen pics are deceiving. It’s much better/brighter and more upscale than it looks in the images. In fact, it’s an eat-in kitchen with a door out to a backyard deck. It even has a pet door and a security system. It’s really a special house and worth the asking price. Right next door is a beautiful church and it’s caty-corner to beautiful Bower park. Here’s the rub, it’s not a very inviting block and it’s a tad too close to the Albany Houses. What this means for the price, I guess, is that it may not sell for over a mil. It’s really too bad.

Let’s narrow it down. That’s a lot of dough for a house right around the corner from Albany Houses in this market. At this price, you should be comfortable walking around the corner at all times.
Best House, Worst Location, One Family = You Lose
re q2 gdp – lots of it is from high net exports due to weak dollar. q4 will be the real litmus test.
I like the big eaves too.
Its difficult to believe that this house has basically the same asking price of the rather pedestrian house on Lorimer St. in Greenpoint that was an open house last Friday.
