House of the Day: 1600 Dorchester Road
This beautiful Victorian house at 1600 Dorchester Road has the distinction of having the only in-ground pool in Ditmas Park. And what a tastefully-done pool it is (especially when compared to what most pools in Brooklyn look like)! The interior of the house is gorgeous as well, with beautiful old floors and tastefully remodeled bathrooms….

The interior of the house is gorgeous as well, with beautiful old floors and tastefully remodeled bathrooms. There should be no shortage of potential buyers coveting this place, the question is whether they will be willing to pay the asking price of $1,525,000. What do you think?
1600 Dorchester Road [Corcoran] GMAP P*Shark
lovely home. well worth 1.3 million. shows how overpriced most other properties in the borough are.
This amazing house does indeed have an off-street parking space. The pool is perfectly maintained. It costs $1300/season to service the pool (open and close, and bi-weekly cleaning); $650 to open and close only; and about $300 in utilities(gas heater). This Victorian is stellar, in every way. It is maintained with utmost style given every detail. A buyer’s dream!
Great comparison, chicken.
slick, the Corcoran photography department probably has a lot to do with that.
The Ebinger house has to be 50% bigger than this one – it’s like comparing a Bentley to a BMW. It’s fine if you prefer the BMW for whatever reason but you’d be crazy to pay the same price as the Bentley.
I’ve seen the ebinger house. In fact, I inquired if they were looking for a lower offer to get it on the move. I expect you could get that house for $1.2 MM or so.
However, based on the pics, I think I’d rather have this house. It’s bright and open.
What does the pool add to homeowners/liability insurence?
chicken – that house is my ‘vision of granduer’, mostly a pipe dream..i am in no position to make that offer..it’s all you kiddo…
Many new products!
Shingles, siding, whatever!

Every wood frame house has siding. Sometimes it’s wood, sometimes it’s vinyl, or asbestos, or aluminum. Siding is what keeps the weather out.
I have wood, but I’m jealous of my neighbors with the asbestos shingles, since those things hold paint forever and look great in my opinion.
