House of the Day: 526 Carlton Avenue
This four-story brownstone at 526 Carlton Avenue in Prospect Heights sold for $1,230,000 back in 2006.

Since then, it’s undergone a major renovation that’s resulted in a pretty nice looking house; recessed lighting notwithstanding, the reno managed to preserve the major architectural details of the house while injecting it with some attractive modern upgrades (i.e. they did a nice job on the kitchen and bathrooms). The bigger question is whether $2,300,000 will fly so close to Atlantic Yards.

Sorry, this is not a $2m+ block.
“Ratner just agreed to sell 80% of the Nets to Russia’s richest man. Think he’ll move here?”
Ratner, maybe.
Russia’s richest will move to Brighton Beach.
Price looks delusional and doesn’t factor in that many wouldn’t touch this with a 10 ft barge pole because of the location. It’s not just the uncertainty of AY (as huge an issue as that is), it’s also that this house faces a massive empty lot (can anyone say “rodents”?)and that the Carlton St bridge is gone making access to neighborhoods to the north on foot or by car much harder. Although the reno looks good in photos, I would want to see it before passing judgement. The quality of the finishes is impossible to ascertain from online pics. $1.7 max.
“The 4th floor, the master bedroom floor, has 3 rooms and 2 fireplaces or 2 home offices (ample closet space too) and a full bathroom with soaking tub, toilet and bidet.”
huh??? Okay, this doesn’t make sense.
They’re describing the 4th floor as the ‘master bedroom floor’ when the 3rd floor has the biggest bedroom and on floor plan labelled ‘master bedroom’
…speaking of AY….
Ratner just agreed to sell 80% of the Nets to Russia’s richest man. Think he’ll move here?
Nice renovation BUT….
– Who wants to hear a toilet flush while eating in the Formal Dining Room?
– No ensuite bathroom in the Master Bedroom?
– Why did they give the bigger closet to the smaller bedroom on the Third Floor.
Nitpick. I will at this price.
Want to add: this place is stunning, love the reno. I think it should move at this price, perhaps with a slight discount.
yeah, with the garage and curb cut could rent the spot for arena games.
1. This place is begging to be staged. Owner/developer should step and show buyers what it could look like.
2. Where’s the fridge? Seems like an awkward kitchen layout — looks like a condo layout where you only have one room for kitchen/living/diving, not like a real kitchen.
