House of the Day: 178 8th Avenue
This house at 178 8th Avenue in Park Slope is beautiful. It’s configured nicely. It’s been updated. It’s in a prime location. Great stuff. The price of $2,995,000, however, seems hopelessly out of touch. Maybe the stock market rally of the past few weeks emboldened the sellers to put a higher price tag on it…

This house at 178 8th Avenue in Park Slope is beautiful. It’s configured nicely. It’s been updated. It’s in a prime location. Great stuff. The price of $2,995,000, however, seems hopelessly out of touch. Maybe the stock market rally of the past few weeks emboldened the sellers to put a higher price tag on it than they would have at the beginning of the year but we just don’t think a house in Park Slope is going to fetch $3 million these days unless less it’s a unique mansion. And, as nice as this place is, it’s a relatively common brownstone. There’s an open house on Sunday from 1 to 3 if you want to check it out.

Is it open season again on commenting and entering a number in the price widget?
From yesterday, seems you’re not allowed a low number, lest you be called clueless and ignorant by brownstoner.
Maybe it’s just he’s especially touchy when it’s Clinton Hill, or perhaps if he’s helping out a friend who needs to sell
Brownstoner programmer to-do list:
– banning that person who always submits the max – ask+40%
– take gemini10’s suggestion and change the max to 100K over the asking price and that’s it
– if the property is in Clinton Hill change the minimum to 100K under ask to avoid offending Mr. B, otherwise a lowball number is fair game
also the second floor should have two bathrooms.
nice house, terrific location. i would guess 2.4 million.
if it sells.
are there still people out there looking for 2.4 million dollar houses? I mean people not looking to buy near their shul?
this place i linked last week has already gone to contract in only 16 days on the market:

You know why the backyard is so good? Because 8th Avenue is the boulevard of Death.
Yes, garden floor is not currently set up as a rental, clearly. Shouldn’t be advertised as such.
yes, widget tweak is in the works to change the scale
it is an observation that the garden apartment does not seem to have a bathroom. Is there an outhouse at least?
the backyard is amazing – lots of great points about this place for sure
I do think 3million is a big reach
that said I think it could sell for 2.5mil
sam, is that a riff on yesterdays thread about 10 people for one bathroom?
