House of the Day: 567 1st Street
You don’t see the phrase “quadruple parlor floor” tossed around too often, but it made the grade in this listing for 567 1st Street in Park Slope.

You don’t see the phrase “quadruple parlor floor” tossed around too often, but it made the grade in this listing for 567 1st Street in Park Slope. The same rear addition that makes such a phrase possible is also responsible for pushing the square-footage tally on this four-story brownstone of the 5,000 mark (it’s 5,352 square feet to be exact). It makes the claim of “extra-wide” which technically may be right (Property Shark says 21 feet) but is stretching it a bit. Anyway, beautiful house, stone’s throw from the parkwhat’s not to like! The asking price is $2,989,000. Buyer-friendly or oh-so-2007?

As long as you’re dead, it’s an estate.
This is a very large and rather pretentious house. As I am rather large and pretentious myself, I naturally love it.
It’s long and there’s grass. So I think the horse is a go. There’s also a nice fence for some steeplechase, so it’s definitely an estate.
BRG – as long as you can ride your horse there it qualifies as an estate.
SnarkSlope, that line killed me in the Tiki Bar thread. Can you please try to work it into every thread today. It’s hilarious!
I step away for an hour and this is what I come back to.

If you buy the lot next door to this house also, does it make it an estate?
“you should only expect to get a premium if a cop lives next door.”

The DOW is inching ever closer to 8000!
Congrats DOW8000, you nailed it!
It’s the only organ joke I had.
I meant that as a dissatisfied groan, not a satisfied one.
