The owners of 615 2nd Street gave selling their Park Slope limestone a go last year but packed it in after six months when the $3,495,000 asking price proved to much for the market to bear. Now the house is back on the market with a new price tag of $2,950,000. It’s a great house to be sure but, as we noted last time around, the kitchen finishes seem a little out of place. What do you think the market-clearing price is on this baby?

  1. “kitchen finishes seem a little out of place”

    Fraction of the real value (even that is far lower than this begging price). I love how she hides the fact that it is a one family. I also love the “gym”. Hard to beat that location though. However…

    Would this house rent for 2,950,000/10/12 = $24,583/mo?

    Is 2,950,000/3 = $983,333/yr even in the ballpark of Prime Park Slope’s median income?

    Damn, I gotta get my shit together!

    “The story depicts the effect of confinement on the narrator’s mental health, and her descent into psychosis. With nothing to stimulate her, she becomes obsessed by the pattern and color of the wallpaper. ‘It is the strangest yellow, that wall-paper! It makes me think of all the yellow things I ever saw — not beautiful ones like buttercups, but old foul, bad yellow things.'”

  3. This is a lovely house on a prime block. The kitchen is fine, geez a little wallpaper and people freak. Someone with a lot of dough and an undying desire to spend it in Brooklyn will buy this I guess. I think 2.6 or so will do the trick.

  4. Ivory bracelets from murdered elephants and gold from a bank that funds terrorists… Man o’ man Tara! You really know how to attract the best boyfriends!

    btw, my apologies in advance for perpetuating stereotypes about Middle Easterners. 🙂
