House of the Day: 45 Park Place
This federal townhouse at 45 Park Place in Park Slope is bound to turn a lot of heads. The living and bedrooms have exquisite period detail and the kitchen and bathrooms appear to have been attractively updated. The proximity to Fifth Avenue is increasingly positive as well.

This federal townhouse at 45 Park Place in Park Slope is bound to turn a lot of heads. The living and bedrooms have exquisite period detail and the kitchen and bathrooms appear to have been attractively updated. The proximity to Fifth Avenue is increasingly positive as well. That said, it’ll be interesting to see how this fares with an asking price of $2,395,000. Wonder what the wisdom of the masses will be when it comes to the appraisal votes!

#1. I do own, but it’s a small apartment. Enough space for me, and I love it. It is probably in more of an “A” location by Sam’s standards than this place.
#2. Thank you tiptoe for pointing out that Sam went after me first. I can take the criticism just fine and was actually making a joking reference to Sam’s age to offset what I thought was an extremely dismissive comment he made to me first.
Even if I could afford a full brownstone (not something I ever really imagined going into a career as a musician) I would not buy one. I’m a single guy. What in the world would I need all that space for?
c’mon guys, simmer down. This is a nice house, it is maybe a little over-priced, in a good part of the Slope but not in the best part of the Slope. And no, 33 is not too old to buy your first house or apartment, but on the other hand, don’t let too much more time go by. Time flies.
OK, they’re wheeling me out to the dining room at the home now.
good night all!
If BH is an “A” location, THIS IS CERTAINLY NOT.
I could see how you responded that it riled you.
I’ve been a homeowner since 1983 when I was 28. In Chicago until 1994 and after that various states. I don’r insult anyone simply becasuse they don’t own. When they take an adversarial position to ownership and then support it badly then they’re open for whatever I throw at them.
so, now you can see through your computer and tell I’m riled up?? DIBS: he sees all, he knows all.
No need to insult someone who hasn’t bought yet for having an opinion different than yours. how long have you been a homeowner? I feel SURE you had opinions way before that.
sam’s 2:49 comment started the whole thing…
This is def an A location.
Because I knew it’d rile you up tiptoe.
sam’s characterization of the location is probably correct. 11217 has made it known in the past that he can’t afford a house like this…there’s nothing wrong with that.
DIBS – correction, you were wrong. Sam went after 11217 first, and basically insulted him for not having enough $$ to buy. I quote: “[I]t maybe an “A” location for you, but you don’t have the money to buy this house. For most who have achieved a greter level of finanical success, I would suggest that this is a “B” location. A solid “B”.
Second, for many many people, Bed Stuy isn’t a “A” neighborhood, not even close. Why even make this comparison to the North Slope?
The bath should definitely be larger, especially in a 2.3 million dollar house, still, it could work in a say 1.8 million house.
taking down that partition and adding a little space would not be too big a deal.
