House of the Day: 282 Park Place
We’ll be really interested to see what this new brownstone listing at 282 Park Place ends up selling for. We really like these brownstone blocks of Prospect Heights—they’re not quite as established (read: fancified) as the blocks on the other side of Flatbush but as a result they’re also a little cooler in our opinion….

(We’re not the only ones who think so—right, Maggie and Peter?) This particular house has lots of details and is configured nicely into am upper triplex with garden rental, as most potential buyers will want it. It’s also got lots of original details. Eighteen months ago we suspect this would have been asking $2,250,000. It just came to market, however, with a price tag of $1,799,000. Interesting indeed.

zippy-
it’s after 3p. i thought your caffeine wore off by now and you became *pleasant* again.
Ummm… I kinda like Boise. Have any of you ever been there? It’s a pretty decent city. 🙂
I’m glad I posted it too then Pigeon. I have no desire to have people here who don’t want to be here.
Anyone who decides they don’t want to live in a neighborhood because of a New York Magazine article isn’t really dealing with a full deck anyway, if you ask me.
Which I know you didn’t.
“…I think those buildings look nice without the stoop. I’d never want to replace it unless I just didn’t want to enter on the tenants level…”

DIBS,
That’s just plain crazy.
That’s like saying a face looks nice with out a nose.
Yes, most of the named PS streets are very quiet. I live right on Stuyvesant Ave and I consider that quiet…macon, macDonough & bainbridge are even more quiet.
Lewis, malcolm X and marcus garvey get a lot more traffic than Stuyvesant Ave

Thanks for posting the link to the NYer Magazine article.
It was good to read, even though it made me NOT want to live in ths slope.
Good point antidope.
Watch your wallet.
The brokers (lame) listing says:
“We are mindful of work needed and have priced this home accordingly…”
Also, I believe the place next door (the limestone painted yellow, to the left) is for sale, too. It has an SRO C of O of 5 (units).
Quiet is a relative term.
Park Slope (even 9th and Union) are even pretty darn quiet given that we live in the largest city in the U.S.
To suggest that the named streets in Park Slope are anything but quiet (when thinking about where we live) must to me mean you like to be able to hear a pin drop.
If 10 people walk by my building (on a named street) in an hour, that would be a lot. Is that considered loud?
Silly argument…I’ll stop.
Maggie and Peter looked at my house when I was selling. Just sayin’.
