72-Hicks-Street-Brooklyn-1108.jpg
Recently reduced to $3,750,000 from a starting price of $4,995,000 earlier this year (with a couple of intermediate stops along the way), this gorgeous woodframe house at 72 Hicks Street in Brooklyn Heights must be coming into range for some well-heeled buyer. After all, this is one of the oldest houses in the Heights, dating back to the 1820s, and it’s a 25-footer. On top of that, it looks extremely well-preserved. By comparison, Brown Harris still has this house at 19 Garden Place listed at $3,995,000. Which do you think is a better deal?

  1. “I can see it SOLD once it gets to 800K – Hoboken in the heights.”

    Hmmm, maybe we should lock in the login ID “BROOKLYNHEIGHTSROCKS” and sell it to HOBOKENROCKS once he finally buys his $800K brownstone of his dreams.

  2. Cobble…kitchens and bathes are some of the costliest things to renovate. It’s nice to see if they’re in good shape or not. It makes a huge impact on the price of a house.

    No coffee for me..beleive it or not.

    Agreed, this house has some great details.

  3. ‘and it will probably sell for a high number’…sam, it got over a million dollars of chops on that cutting board.
    It’s finally coming down to where it should be. Give it another dice or two.

  4. “There are always those short-sellers who make money during a finacial crisis.”

    AHA, I’ve just figured out why the ceilings are so low in SnarkSlope’s listing. Short sellers!

  5. BRG, you’ve been on a roll lately…how much coffee have you had today!

    Why do we only see photos of the dining room and livingroom and everyone loves this house? Usually you guys RANT if you don’t see the kitchen/bathroom. Uhm, that mantel is nice, but…You’re confusing me!

  6. I don’t really see too much here that looks federal style except the dining room mantle but the place is very attractive whatever it is, and it will probably sell for a high number. There are always those short-sellers who make money during a finacial crisis.
