This is a wonderful house. Priced fairly. Lot’s to be happy about here.
What a great little house
good solid price
not surprised if it goes slightly above ask as that price is attractive for that house
This house has an irregular shape, 20 ft in front, but maybe 14 ft wide in the back. That’s a big issue for me.
You know, the realtor put a huge sign high up on the side of the house advertising it for sale and her realty company. Made me wonder if you could pimp that big yellow wall out for advertising to help cut the mortgage? Not that I would ever do it, but seems like a possibility?

I saw the house back then too but I thought it felt cramped, although they were renting out the apartment back then.
too bad there’s no windows along the side of the house – that’s what redeems the increased street noise for a lot of these corner houses.
I was going to remark that it was also a nice listing with all those pics but, alas, no floorplan.

I love WT, but it certainly doesn’t have the same feel as 90 PPW – that is heart of Park Slope, grand buildings, other subway lines, a gazillion more restaurants, etc. The house, again, I love, but it is 100% F train, Windsor Terrace. I think 90 PPW is overpriced, but it really isn’t fair to call it the same neighborhood.
isn’t the good italian ices place right across the street?
that’s worth the price of admission right there.
unless there’s hidden problem, i like this listing a lot.
