House of the Day: 304 Union Street
Today’s House of the Day at 304 Union Street in Carroll Gardens is particularly interesting in light of yesterday’s GMAP P*Shark Open House Picks 11/4/2005 [Brownstoner]
Today’s House of the Day at 304 Union Street in Carroll Gardens is particularly interesting in light of yesterday’s discussion about declining prices. We had it as an Open House Pick in November 2005 when it was listed for $1,850,000; it ultimately sold for $1,700,000 in May 2006, and the new owner clearly went to town on the renovation. It’s charmingly done (love those slightly rough original floorboards in the parlor) but the big question is whether it merits the marked-up price of $4,150,000.

Open House Picks 11/4/2005 [Brownstoner]
Literally 20-25% overpriced, especially with that crappy bathtub and sink. will go for 3.2 IF the seller hits the lottery
Nice house. I love the wide plank floors, too. Don’t like the soffitts in the bedrooms for the A/C, though.
Price is astronomical.
Between Court and Smith? With the largest HVAC ductwork in Bklyn? Mere steps from Marco Polo? Right on a noisy bus route?
Listing this week? Yeah, this makes sense.
First of all, that bath with the shower curtain around a clawfoot tub in a $4MM + property is a deal-killer. Thats not a renovation.
Any brownstone above $2MM should have a giant ensuite master bath…mine does and it’s not even worth half that price. Kitchen photos????
$1,250 psf…well its better than that ridiculous carriage house last week at $1,500 psf!!!
I’ll take ‘high on crack’ for four million, please, Alex.
Savage enough?
YIKES!! That’s alot. No pics of the kitchen, they must have used GE appliances 🙂
Certainly the house is quite lovely.
And I imagine that some people might still be able to afford it.
The one thing that seems weird to me is the master bathtub being in a walk-in closet.
the craziness of this ask has nothing to do with declining prices. even at the market’s most bullish peak this price would have been way too high.
That asking price seems incredible to me. Is there any comparables for this place nearby?
