House of the Day: 419 Union Street
We’re loving the vibe of this four-story house at 419 Union Street in Carroll Gardens. The combo of the old-school floorboards and tasteful modern kitchen put this one in our sweet spot. The two-family property sold for $1,577,800 back in 2005 and was featured as an Open House Pick last June when it was listed…

BRG–wouldn’t surprise me to see this house (and many others) sell at 2005 prices in the near future.
I hear you Biff. Wouldn’t want to bring on another bout of NDS (or whatever we were calling it). I lived in BH from 1994 to 1996 and enjoyed it, but I was always going elsewhere for my fun.
Agree that it’s nice, but obviously, that’s not enough to sell it, since it’s been on the market for a long time and the news has gotten much worse since it first came on the market. I think the owners would be very lucky to break even.
Beautiful house.
At $500 sq. ft. this house would sell for less than what it went for in 2005.
wasder, while I personally prefer Brooklyn Heights to Carroll Gardens, at the same time, I consider myself objective about Brooklyn Heights and can take the criticism that it deserves. While the street population is probably more diverse than one would think, I completely concur on the lack of “vibe” (although, that’s also what attracts many to the relatively quiet neighborhood) and woeful selection of shops and restaurants – although it’s situated closely enough to Cobble Hill, DUMBO and Boerum Hill to give us at least some nearby options and variety. Having said that, I often do get neighborhood envy when I go to Park Slope.
Gorgeous house, nice neighborhood … I can’t comment on what it “should” cost and it doesn’t matter anyway because even a million is well out of my range, but if I had the cash this is the kind of thing I’d really be looking for. Not too huge, separate ground-floor suite for house guests, tasteful interiors, great garden. There’s not much to complain about here.
Only one long block from smith st. $550 per sq. foot is only gonna happen if it is a fire sale. Dream on. This house is way better than that. GO LOOK at the house the bathrooms are awesome and it is in move in condition.
This really is a beautiful house. If it was professionally done, they really did a nice job. If it was the homeowners, they need to go into the business. Nice touches all around, from the paint colors – love the blue on the ceiling, to the finishings, furnishings and kitchen and bathrooms. The Chinese bed is gorgeous.
Don’t know if they’ll get the price, but everyone who leaves the open house will certainly have plenty to think about, and will leave with positive impressions.
I have a mad crush on this house…price, I have no idea, but it’s beautiful inside and out.
