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!

sam….people “barely in their 30s” know everything. You must have forgotten that in your adcnaced stage.
I think those scalloped cornices and curved window heads could date anywhere from the 1860’s to the 1880’s.
11210, you’re not incurring my wrath, just my conversation. Besides you were the one who insulted me based on my (presumed) advanced age.
By the way, I bought my first house in my twenties. No biggie, every married person i knew was buying at that age. I bought the current brownstone I live in in my thirties.
If you are thirty plus and have not yet bought your first property, you may have missed the train. It does not get any easier you know.
Biff, youi’ve been awfully quiet today. Cat got your tongue??
The marketability of three extra bedrooms beyond the master is not as high as a master bedroom with a luxurious bathroom which could have been accomplished on that third floor. Third floor master bedroom with WIKs and attached study plus a gigantic bathroom. Two additional bedrooms on the top floor would probably fulfill the vast majority of buyers needs…unless of course if they’re irish or Italian and have like 6 or 8 kids. 🙂
tybur6, good one!
I was the 101st appraiser… i feel like a dalmatian!
BRG, I’m with you on the ensuite bath thing!!!! That was one of the top five reasons I wanted a house.
Bay Ridge is really far from everything. I don’t even think we’re part of Brooklyn.
That said.
A $2M MUST have a master bathroom, right off the master bedroom, not through another bedroom.
I think Bed Stuy is an “A” location because of the value and size you get for the money. Plus, it is very quiet relative to other parts of brooklyn that people consider “prime.” Stuyvesant heights is likely yo continue to appreciate faster than other parts of Brooklyn.
I’m close to everything in Brooklyn because I take a car service to & from.
