House of the Day: 44 1st Place Revisited
When we first took a look at 44 1st Place almost a year ago, it was on the market with Douglas Elliman for $3,842,500, a price we called “a big stretch” at the time. Elliman lost the listing in March, and it popped up again with Corcoran at $3,650,000 in April. When that didn’t work,…
When we first took a look at 44 1st Place almost a year ago, it was on the market with Douglas Elliman for $3,842,500, a price we called “a big stretch” at the time. Elliman lost the listing in March, and it popped up again with Corcoran at $3,650,000 in April. When that didn’t work, the price was cut again to $3,200,000 in July, where it’s stayed despite a worsening market. What do you think it’ll take to get this done?

House of the Day: 44 1st Place [Brownstoner]
Overpricing Not Working in Carroll Gardens [Brownstoner]
The blooming cherry tree in the front yard is supposed to diguise the stripped and cracked front facade.
The kitchen, though they probably spent more money on it than they had planned to, looks like something out of those magazines that you see at Home Depot.
Why do people in New York do this to historic houses?
Is it ignorance? Cheapness? Profound bad taste?
Why was that arch closed up? And those silly little doors put there? Ack! Ruined!
It’s a four-unit tenement with a very ugly front facade.
A landlord that is interested in increasing his rentals in the area may offer 1.8 million. The place wouldneed a ton of work to make it into a two-family. The facade alone needs to be completely redone.
I’m not feeling the love.
Obviously its the sofa thats making this place hard to sell.
offer 150K
to turn this baby into a grand one family – alot of plumbing work $$.
Sofa looks like an elephant laying down.
really hard to say with these big houses that are really the size of small apt buildings. first two floors are 1500 sqft each! i feel like it might go down to 2mill since the owners are being so stubborn.
