House of the Day: 1232 Dean Street
This four-story house at 1232 Dean Street in Crown Heights just hit the market and, like so many houses in the area, has some killer architectural details. (In this case, it’s the wood paneling and built-ins that really impress.) Hopefully for the seller, this place will attract more interest than the next-door neighbor at 1230…
This four-story house at 1232 Dean Street in Crown Heights just hit the market and, like so many houses in the area, has some killer architectural details. (In this case, it’s the wood paneling and built-ins that really impress.) Hopefully for the seller, this place will attract more interest than the next-door neighbor at 1230 Dean Street, which we featured a year ago and is still on the market for $1,250,000. While we suspect there will be plenty of people who dig the house, we suspect that the price tag of $999,000 for a house in this neighborhood may be a tough sell in this economic environment.

oh, damn my spelling
crocodile shoes!
Montrose, You know I love the area and we were looking about a year ago. We’re going to resume our hunt after the new year.
“You are as obsolete as a “brother” in a pimp suit, with matching hat and shoes, in a pink caddy, rolling down Fulton Street. A whole lotta flash, but no substance.”
MM – when we move to the area. I was going to get hubby a purple suit and matching furry hat with crocidle shoes and pimp out the caddy, so we can fit in.
You mean, I shouldn’t do that 🙂
QOTD…..”You are as obsolete as a “brother” in a pimp suit, with matching hat and shoes, in a pink caddy, rolling down Fulton Street. A whole lotta flash, but no substance.”
Hey thanks for the smoothing over NOP – I grew up in a house much like this in Jersey City and my parents are still there and well that house sort of scares the crap out of me too. I love woodwork and old houses and such but I need light and these pictures hopefully do not do this house any justice. As that hallway screams of you being chased by the knife-weilding wood nymph that crawled out of the woodwork.
The What, as usual, is trying to stir the pot. BRG, I would welcome you and Hubby around the corner. My back yard doesn’t face this side of the street, but I’d come over and gape at that built-in any time. Let me know if you go see it, I’ll come with you to protect you from all of the urban denizens the What thinks are training on the block. He must mean the drum and bugle corp that sometimes practices at the church.
What, you bitch that you are treated like a second class citizen in your own neighborhood, (Fulton St. thread), you take delight in people getting mugged in Clinton Hill (mugging thread), and now you tell people not to move to Crown Heights because the boyz in the hood are cleaning their weapons. You want everyone white/rich/educated to move back to Iowa, and leave the hoods to whom? Since you’ve been around since those bad old days, how about some constructive ways to make life better for everyone, ESPECIALLY the old timers who really feel the pinch, instead of celebrating us all going to hell. If you’re not part of the solution, then you are the problem, and you get no props, no respect, no street cred from me. You are as obsolete as a “brother” in a pimp suit, with matching hat and shoes, in a pink caddy, rolling down Fulton Street. A whole lotta flash, but no substance.
$600k @ 6.0%…$3,597/month….insurance $3,000 max (with Chubb)…utilities depend on oil or gas and how efficient the boiler is but with gas forced air shouldn’t be more than about $1,800 per year. I think this place had radiators so don’t know how efficient it would be
DIBS…I was being sarcastic.
You should have known that when I said he was a dream!
BRG…never rely on the What for any numbers. Single family mortgages under the terms above are 5.5%…two-family slightly higher.
For a broker he’s pretty stupid with the numbers.
What…even you aren’t so dumb to think the rate is going to be 9.75%.
Please stop being a jackass sooooo often
