House of the Day: 37 Winthrop Street
The exterior of this single-family house at 37 Winthrop Street in PLG is a little rough on the eyes but the interior has a nice vibe. Granted the kitchen could use some TLC, but the floors, moldings and ceiling beams throughout the 3,000-square-foot house look pretty solid. The two-family house is asking $879,000. Think it…

Mr. & Mrs. CWB, you guys should jointly blog your search. Seems like it would make an enjoyable read. Sure beats “The Hunt” in the NYT real estate section.
hey cwbuecheler family – go check out ridgewood. you can get a really nice old townhouse in a nice area.

You know whta’s fun now? Looking at this dreck! you will need about 200k to buy this “Home Depot” special.
Now in 2009 who in the hell is going depart with that kind of loot? Only a Asshat…

I (respectfully) disagree with the hubby in terms of layout (that upstairs floor plan could use an architect with some common sense), but other than that I actually kind of like it a lot. Even the fact that it needs some love — from the look of it (for what realtor pics are worth), you could improve it quite substantially without having to live in a hell pit for months.
I don’t care for this house at all. It might have once been lovely, but whatever charms it once had are obscured by sheetrock, paneling, and white paint. It is, however, monstrously large, so on a per-square-foot basis, it’s probably quite the bargain.
A pioneering asshat would give it a shot. He/she would see $879K with rental income as fitting in his/her budget. More doable than a one-fam vic.

The interiors look fairly attractive and I like that the rental could be in a separate carriage house. That being said, I much prefer the houses on the other side of this street which are similar to a row one block south on Parkside Avenue–IMO a prettier block.
Wow, I actually really, really dig this house. Location, and layout are good, interior’s in decent shape, exterior seems solid. 1BR rental is a huge plus. Might be a little noisy being that close to flatbush, but should be tolerable.
I hope it sits on the market until I’m ready to buy, but I’m doubting it.
