House of the Day: 7543 Shore Road
Some folks got a little grumpy a couple of weeks ago when we poked some fun at a McMansion in Bay Ridge, saying we should have focused on some of the beautiful architecture in the area (and there’s plenty). Today’s House of the Day at 7543 Shore Road isn’t the finest example in the nabe,…
Some folks got a little grumpy a couple of weeks ago when we poked some fun at a McMansion in Bay Ridge, saying we should have focused on some of the beautiful architecture in the area (and there’s plenty). Today’s House of the Day at 7543 Shore Road isn’t the finest example in the nabe, but it’s got a nice feel to it, plus it’s gigantic and has water views. It ain’t cheap though! $4,200,000. Hmmmm.

Though I think this maybe now classified as in a flood zone, remembering seeing an article last week in wsj about low lying areas in nyc.

hands off boys, I’ve already put my offer in….
Also, Madoff’s Montauk waterfront home (truly waterfront) was listed for $7MM and just sold for $8.75 MM
From Bloomberg:
Household Net Worth in U.S. Increases by $2 trillion, First gain Since ’07
It climbed from $51.1 Tr to $53.1 Tr in the second quarter
You fence sitters better think about whether or not you want to buy something. Miss Muffett??????
dibs, got the mind shakes from no martinis this week so far…..
It’s waterfront in the sense that the water is sorta in front of it – not in the suburban waterfront sense that you have your own private beach and have to freak out whenever a hurricane/noreaster decides to drop by.
No, DeLepp, “there are” is correct.
The pic is misleading. The lawn and stone wall shown do not belong to the house, but to it’s nieghbor, which is truly set back far from the Shore Road. This house is set back , but not exceedingly so, which allows for a larger backyard area given a 200 foot lot line. It has decent frontage , which is not evidenced in the photo. It is in fairly good condition with older finishings/ well maintained old type cloth awnings . In my opinion, it is not overdone and retains a fair degree of old Shore Road character. The stenciling referenced earlier is unlikely to be of unsightly grape leaves, but floral , likely done by a local artist. Not my taste , but probably favored by the elderly woman who once resided there. The home is overpriced, but this harbor facing home will probably fetch over three million. It also sits on the curve of the road that is fairly distant from the highway, which means less road noise.
Antidope, safe to assume if you were to bid, you would low-ball the seller big time too?
