House of the Day: 229 Baltic Street
This townhouse at 229 Baltic Street in Cobble Hill just hit the market and it’s a doozy. The good news is that it’s a gorgeous place—lots of original detail and recently the subject of a top-notch renovation. The bad news? The asking price is $4,200,000, definitely at the high end of the range for something…

This townhouse at 229 Baltic Street in Cobble Hill just hit the market and it’s a doozy. The good news is that it’s a gorgeous place—lots of original detail and recently the subject of a top-notch renovation. The bad news? The asking price is $4,200,000, definitely at the high end of the range for something to the south of Atlantic Avenue. (Heck, it’s even quite a bit of dough in Brooklyn Heights these days.) Still, for some lucky bonus recipient looking for a beautiful house to move right into, this might just be the ticket.

‘a sunlight spilling in light’ = a SKYlight…
oh and in a $4 million dollar house, you don’t (or shouldn’t) put in a 20K Home Depot kitchen.
At least 80K for the kitchen. You got an expensive house, live in style.
Sorry. A ‘roach-topped dumpling’?
I’ll go take a peek.
It isn’t 4 million, Ex. It is 4 point TWO million.
Just sayin’.
“The kitchen and master bath were not completed along with the recent reno”
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Sorry, I can’t help but laugh. That’s kinda ballsy listing it for $4 million smackaroos and it needed a new kitchen and bath.

Wow. Even a roach-topped dumpling would taste good eaten at that custom dining table from Holler and Squall. Place looks impeccably curated. Thanks for posting.
Pigeon and ExTex nailed it. The curb appeal is non-existent and the master bathroom and kitchen need serious work.
But other than that, the home is frickin’ beautiful. We especially loved the top floor with its open family space, a sunlight spilling in light, and the choices in trim, paint, carpet, doors, etc.
You really feel the width of this house in its’ rooms.
Oh, it also has 4 wbf’s and central air.
Noki, I’m always suspicious when there are NO bathroom pics and only 1 shot of the stove. And, since the garden is a main reason I’d buy another house, please post a garden pic. As for pricing, I totally agree – my widget price is $3.2 million, which still may be high given what you said about the kitchen and baths. Also, I’m not loving the facade – I’d prefer the originally, non-painted brick. And are the windows new – for $4.2 million, give me some nice wood Anderson or Marvin windows with real mullions. Don’t get me wrong – I think the interior of the house (or what we can see of it) is absolutely beautiful.
$4.2 or $3.3 (widget) – -either way I can’t afford it.
But it will be nice prize for somebody to have a Baltic Street address.
