House of the Day: 40 Joralemon Street
After being listed with Corcoran for a few months last year at $2,790,000, 40 Joralemon relaunched with Brown Harris Stevens last week at the significantly lower asking price of $2,300,000. The location’s obviously great but the house is just nice as opposed to some of the knock-your-socks-off listings that come up in Brooklyn Heights. And…

After being listed with Corcoran for a few months last year at $2,790,000, 40 Joralemon relaunched with Brown Harris Stevens last week at the significantly lower asking price of $2,300,000. The location’s obviously great but the house is just nice as opposed to some of the knock-your-socks-off listings that come up in Brooklyn Heights. And since the house is only 2,380 square feet, that asking price comes in at just under $1,000 per foot. Based on the photos, our favorite part of the house is that bedroom with the beautiful wide-plank floors and Greek Revival period mantelpiece.

this house sold for about 800k in 2004.
bitter 🙂 if i win the megamillions, i am going to buy that great house on henry and degraw. i love that house. next to the church that they’re turning into condos. so weird that they do that, but whatever.
maly – i think inside dimensions will be smaller than outside dimensions, wall thickness, that type of thing.
Minard, the floor plan show that the back yard is 18′ by 24′ deep. Are you saying they are misrepresenting the width of this house?
CG, at this rate, if you win the lotto, you’ll own half of Brooklyn Heights! ; )
ooooh if i win the lotto and this goes under $2MM i’m on it!
It’s high. The house is very cute but small. A dollhouse.
It is maybe fourteen feet wide at most.
In these pre-brownstone era houses there is no subfloor. the planks are it. Sometimes late 19th century floors were added on top of the planks, but originally the planks were exposed or were meant to be covered with carpeting or rag rugs.
$1,000 a square foot for a full house is ridiculous for anything but mansion-quality property. And even then…
even for BK Heights, doesn’t 2.3M for this small cute house sound pricey? A few really nice houses come to mind in P Slope and Carroll Garden that are priced there or slightly cheaper but bigger & nicer house.
could the BK Heights knowledgeable crowd weight in on how this compares to the other sub-$3M houses in the hood?
