291-State-Street-Brooklyn-0109.jpg
There’s certainly something to the broker’s description of 291 State Street in Boerum Hill as being a “time capsule.” In addition to the requisite moldings and other details, the 3,024-square-foot brownstone is furnished (and wallpapered!) straight out of the high Victorian era. This place also has the distinction of abutting the 14 new townhouses that were recently built on State Street. Asking price: $2,100,000. Would have been a lay-up a year ago, still not insane today.

  1. I’m was raised in ENY (in the Spring Creek section, for those REALLY in the know), back when the area was filled with dirt roads, modest one- and two-family houses and retired mafiosi.

  2. yeah, jewish married guy (not frum, pretty much freelancing jew). thus propjoes heartache and anger.

    not surprised by the number of m.seeking.m. frums. see movie Trembling Before God as example.

  3. goldie…you’re a guy??? This reminds me of when I first was introduced to craigslist men seeking men!!! There were a number of guys posting who only wanted “frum” guys and I had to go ask a Jewish friend of mine what that meant. Yes, they were all in Brooklyn. Probably PropJoe actually!!!!

  4. I walk down that block many mornings and always considered that Boerum Hill.

    So nobody likes 14 Townhouses? I thought they were the absolute best new construction I’ve seen in BK, great design and great attention to detail. Haven’t been inside tho.
