House of the Day: 122 Bond Street
This three-story brick house at 122 Bond Street just hit the market at the relatively accessible (for the nabe) price of $1,625,000. The single-family house also recently underwent a major renovation, which by and large looks nicely done. So what do you think of that price? We could see it going for pretty close to…

“1km away from a superfund site”. Oh please. By that reckoning, all of Greenpoint and most of Carroll Gardens should be ghost towns.
This is an adorable house, especially if you don’t want/need tenants. The top floor bedroom layout is slightly awkward but could be fixed to allow all rooms to open off the hall. OK as is if you have young children.

…no one hasn’t the issue more…
So for anyone with a broken sarcasm meter, I live three blocks from the Gowanus Houses. I walk by said public housing 5-10 times per week. They’re just people in the nabe, but no Boerum Hill RE discussion is complete until the subject gets brought up (HINT: it will DEPRESS YOUR PROPERTY VALUE!!!).
What kind of folks will you be living near?

Just people in the nabe.

OH, and surprised that we’re in double digit comments and no one hasn’t the issue more. Least anyone be accused of subtle racism, let’s get this out there in true Brownstoner styel:
THIS HOUSE IS TWO BLOCKS FROM THE PROJECTS
Therefore, you will have black people on your sidewalk. Everyday. Just so you know.
Where to start:
Building is 20×25. That’s 1500 of above ground square feet (optimistically).
One of the bedrooms is railroaded off of the other ones.
Over 1k psf, yet 2 blocks from two projects and 1km away from a superfund site.
Not my cup of tea, though the reno is reasonably nice.
Would not call this teeny tiny. More footage than the co-op of the day!
I like shallow houses like this. No dark middle rooms.

Good call.
Great small house IMO. The owners are really nice people, they did a nice and slow pay-as-you-go reno. Dig around and you will discover he has written three satire books, which for guys of a certain age (30s and 40s) will resonate.

The photos are a little .. . well, the one of the kitchen has an extremely deep depth of field . ..
Stoopid price. Apparent PJ insulation until you consider foot traffic on Bond. And only three stories + cellar (what I’d prefer but would not pay a 4-story price for). Next stop on the way down, please?
Update: 25 foot deep? Tis this true?

Sweet house. It might be that deep, because it’s kind of L-shaped, extra rooms out the back the right side. The garden is very small.
