House of the Day: 14 Seventh Avenue

The listing has undergone two price cuts since then, bringing the current asking price down to $2,250,000. The interior is very impressive, so we’re a little surprised no one’s…

The interior is very impressive, so we’re a little surprised no one’s fallen in love yet, but maybe the price is just a little too high.

Great looking house. Love the light and the feel. 20×90 lot. It would appear from the first parlor photo that the main set of pocket doors is gone, unfortunately.
The price must be adjusted downward to reflect that very noisy, dirty, and well-traveled block of 7th Avenue.
It’s also available for rent at $7500:

Most of these posters wouldn’t know period detail from a luan door.
What’s revolting is gutting a historic house and turning it into a FAKE white loft. Stupid.
I too think the naysayers live white boxes with glass facades.
The details are timeless.
The moldings are exquisite. The crown moldings and the swag cove moldings and the fireplace mantle all look like original nineteenth century work to me. Perhaps what the puritanical do not like are the gilded pier mirror and the curtain crowns or valences. These golden tops were meant to hold draperies. The house has no draperies in the front room but they kept their valences. Very nice. If you think this is tacky you should read up on historic residential architecture and period details.
pretty? nice property, but those moldings are tacky.
hard to tell though with so few photos of the other rooms.
Who cares about the listing. Why don’t you get your ass away from the computer and go to the open house instead of blabbing on about something that you can’t afford anyway. Lazy ass.
Yeah, the house is so pretty it’s scary. It’s so pretty that you would actually feel bad painting over what’s there. so you’re stuck with it. At least that’s my take.
Beautiful house.
Not sure of the location.
Crappy listing
