House of the Day: 42 Grace Court
This new listing at 42 Grace Court is not for the faint-of-wallet, but if you’ve got the dosh, you could do a lot worse. The five-story, 6,500-square-foot brownstone has been restored in an eco-friendly manner while retaining most of its old-school cred.

This new listing at 42 Grace Court is not for the faint-of-wallet, but if you’ve got the dosh, you could do a lot worse. The five-story, 6,500-square-foot brownstone has been restored in an eco-friendly manner while retaining most of its old-school cred. Not that the eventual buyer will probably need it, but there’s also a potential income stream from a second unit. As for the asking price of $5,950,000, who the heck knows. At those levels, it’s anybody’s guess.

“There you go, Tara, more “tongue in cheek”
Tsk, Tsk, you’re naughty!
There you go, Tara, more “tongue in cheek”
“OK, I’m beginning to come around”
What??? I was just coming around to your end.
Dave, I agree. I think the stained doors look beautiful.
OK, I’m beginning to come around to the nice cornices, the floors and the fireplaces. I guess it’s just the “all white” that is offputting.
I’ve also decided to have my 2 sets of parlour doors stripped and refinished after seeing these pics and the Boerum Hill house on http://www.brooklynbridgerealty.com
Just saw the Albermarle house in Last Weeks Biggest Sales.
NOW, that has details!!
Maybe you’re right Dave. This is looking on the plainness side.
“But that has really turned around over the past few years and PS8 is now a wonderful school much loved by parents.”
Absolutely. It’s a fantastic school.
“Is that what you tell your dates???? :)”
Visible to the naked eye, my details stand out and I have WOW factor.
1.Montrosse, I am an old dead architect just like you. We classically trained types think in much the same way.
2.tscola, I have been on all the recent Heights house tours and this house has never been on the tour. The house next door was on the tour the year before last. It is a narrower house with no copper bay.
3.others, The public school in the Heights PS8 was pretty bad because all the gentry sent their kids to the private schools nearby. But that has really turned around over the past few years and PS8 is now a wonderful school much loved by parents.
