House of the Day: 346 Hoyt Street
This smallish one-family house at 346 Hoyt Street in Carroll Gardens, which sold for $1,650,000 back in 2007, just hit the market with a price tag of $1,850,000. It’s unclear when it was done (pre- or post-2007), but at some point recently the brick house was renovated. Even though the house certainly appears to be…
This smallish one-family house at 346 Hoyt Street in Carroll Gardens, which sold for $1,650,000 back in 2007, just hit the market with a price tag of $1,850,000. It’s unclear when it was done (pre- or post-2007), but at some point recently the brick house was renovated. Even though the house certainly appears to be in good shape, its size (1,824 square feet, according to PropertyShark) makes the asking price a stretch in our opinion. What do you think?

The neighborhood was ruined inside and out by 1950s “improvements” and the grocery stores and everyday restaurants are mostly bad.
Ha. I used to live Carroll Gardens and find it overrated.
Exactly, Petebklyn. Took the words out of my mouth.
You, invisible, are particularly ignorant of this location (best exemplified by your description of Carroll Park, one block way). Stop attempting to upstage Miss Muffett and Expert Textpert with your snobbish (or is it reverse snobbish?) lunacy.
I do wonder how someone can put their widget at 1.2M or the like, as if an entire house in Carroll Gardens is going to go for less than a 1300 square foot condo with common charges in the same neighborhood. I mean, why not just put 500K? Or lower?
you naysayers obviously don’t live in the neighborhood or know it well. This is approx. what things cost….If can’t afford it just say so. It is charming location and nice looking property. 1 block to Smith. Get over it.
they should have taken out the entire wall from the entrance to the kitchen to open it up, than it would feel better. it feels a bit cramped to me and the price just ridiculous for such a small place.
invisible, clearly you know nothing about this neighborhood. Let me guess, you live in park slope?
Noki, did you see this HOTD?

It screams for you. Re-work the core (center of house) and add some bathrooms and it’ll be a beauty.
what’s not to like about this location? wake up and smell the gowanus only 1 1/2 blocks away, play with your kids in the tiny concrete “park” which is the only one within walking distance (excluding contaminated red hook ones). triangulate yourself between two elevated nearby expressways and a power plant for maximum respiratory pleasure as they rain fairy dust in the wind. and as a bonus, the socially and historically significant public housing project is a mere six blocks away. what more can one ask?
I know. I’m teasing you a bit in a sheepish way. Because, you know, when my in-laws come to visit… it’s Aerobed City baby!
