It’s hard to guess what you think a property will sell for without seeing some interior photos but since this agent can’t seem to be bothered, we might as well try! On its face, an asking price of $1,200,000 for a single family home in the North Slope seems pretty darn attractive. The listing for the center-staircase house does mention that the place “needs renovation” but doesn’t get any more specific than that. Best guess?
434 4th Street [New Millenium] GMAP P*Shark
This broker specialized in no photos, even of “FULLY RENOVATED” houses.
With a renovation and a window box in every window, this place would be a nice place to call home.
The block and location are great.
Judging by the blooming peach blossom tree in the photo, this place has been on the market a while though.
I think it will need to sell for just under a million to get a deal closed.
Just a guess, but the outside makes it look like a “three family.” You know, one apt with a railroad style layout per floor. Not an original one family house that’s been subdivided into apartments.
Likely means narrow kitchens squeezed into the side on the back, dining room in back, parlor in front, tiny bedrooms in the middle.
It’s brick, with brownstone trim.
In case you haven’t noticed, wine lover, nobody gives a rats ass what you think.
If it does need to be gutted, that is approximately $400K, yes? Doesn’t seem like a crazy asking price.
My old lady defense notwithstanding, I agree that there’s something depressing about the exterior of this house. But maybe there are ways of cheering it up that are relatively inexpensive.
(“Notwithstanding” is yet another word/expression that I don’t understand; shouldn’t it be “withstanding”?)
> of course, i think brownstone’s are super ugly
Good thing you spend so much time on Brownstoner.com.
For some reason the place does not look plumb to me in the photo.
Great location, must assume the worst about condition, only 15′ wide. How much would a nicely renovated 15 footer cost? Deduct $600,000 for work and aggravation.
about as center of ParkSlope as you can get.
Nice opportunity for someone. Especially when seller uses these noname brokers. Off the radar so can get better deal.
