House of the Day: 433 Waverly Avenue
First thought: This three-story carriage house at 433 Waverly Avenue in Clinton Hill is absolutely gorgeous. Second thought: Houses in Clinton Hill are not selling for close to $1,000 a foot last time we checked. As longtime readers know, we’re not generally in favor of exposed brick in townhouses, but in this case, juxtaposed with…
First thought: This three-story carriage house at 433 Waverly Avenue in Clinton Hill is absolutely gorgeous. Second thought: Houses in Clinton Hill are not selling for close to $1,000 a foot last time we checked. As longtime readers know, we’re not generally in favor of exposed brick in townhouses, but in this case, juxtaposed with the beautiful exposed beams, totally works. The current owners, who picked this place up for $1,203,100 before renovating it, also dropped some serious coin on the fixtures. But $2,225,000? Just don’t see how it happens in this market.

Sweet pad. Not sure what part of it is “Balinese-inspired,” but if you’re high enough to think you’re in Bali, you’re almost high enough to think this price is achievable.
Outrageous.
A smallish log cabin in a so-so location for 2.2 million? No wonder the bubble burst. What are people thinking?
Apartment is pretty, but the configuration wouldn’t really work for a family (only 2 bedrooms, one of which is directly off the main living/dining/kitchen area) — which means that you have to find a wealthy childless couple (perhaps retired) who wish to live in the area. These exist, but I suspect many of them would prefer to design their own place than to buy something (and pay the premium) designed by someone else.
Very slow here today…No, What, no one calling up for redemptions!!!!
The boarded up property is #437 and has a lis pendens filed. The one in between, #435 was recently renovated as can be seen from the Streetview
ps11 next door is at least an elementary school, so you wont have highschoolers jacking up your yard/car/etc.
google streetview shots show this place and the one to the right while they were under renovation…and the 2nd one to the right was still boarded up. wonder how long its been boarded. could be a long while longer (like those places on prime park slope blocks)
Per Pshark, the house appears to be owned by the broker Kathleen. It’s really nice reno, and definitely cost more than $200k, but that price is a big stretch.
Kathleen Perkins is both the owner and the broker.
Why doesn’t she park that car in the garage instead of on the street taking up other spots??????????
No wonder this was such a well worded, grammatically correct detailed description. I bet if we check her other listings there are no other “magical” or “unparalleled luxury” listings.
No cobblehiller. Anything above $2MM it is assumed that there are wine storage elements. Jeesh, don’t you know nuthin??? 🙂
