House of the Day: 657 East 24th Street
This single-family house at 657 East 24th Street in Midwood has a nice feel to it—and it’s hard not to covet the two-car garage. The six-bedroom pad traded for $625,000 back in ’07 and is now on the market with a price tag of $925,000. Any bets on whether this price flies? Seems like it…

chicken…why didn’t you just break in and then post some pics on the Forum.
I’m back! Couldn’t see inside but it looks like it could be empty.
The house actually looks pretty nice with roof and siding in decent condition (and the garage exterior looks pretty good as well).
I guess the updating refers to the kitchen and bathrooms? The pictures show rooms in decent condition but looking a little dated (light fixtures, etc).
The block itself is okay – quiet and tree-lined. Some houses look well maintained but others could do with some sprucing up.
If the sellers are reading, I’ll bid 624k.
With no photos of kitchen or baths you know it is a money pit.
Much better than having a poor wife who has to listen to you practice at all hours (trust me on this one- been there, done that) And he had the full monte (damn musicians!)
CWB — Would you mind sharing details about the 4-BR Kensington house? TIA.
Biff…ain’t it great to be single with no responsibilities to enjoy things like drums, fast cars, etc?
Investors looking to make a flip who are now not elgible for the bailout trying to dump. Let it foreclose. Enough of the insanity
cwb, that’s funny. My first drums, which I bought secondhand from a friend, was a Pearl Export kit – standard five piece. I upgraded the snare and cymbals over time. The range of sounds and effects electronic drums offer is incredible, and the higher end snares and toms make the feel realistic. But still nothing like a traditional kit. Ok, apologies all…back to the house.
Biff – I play them, but not well. Other instruments I play poorly include the guitar and the bass. 🙂
I’ve thought about electric drums, but right now we’ve no space to put them. If we ever find a bigger place where they might reasonably fit, I’d definitely look into them. The full kit – just a perl export, nothing special – is in storage upstate until I own something where I can finish and soundproof a room in the basement, or a garage.
