Just Sold! [NY Post]
6:30 is right, it’s about the perception and the context. The more that Brooklyn becomes an acceptable place to buy for people who would only live in Manhattan before, the Brooklyn house prices will rise. Because to those Manhattan people the houses here seem a bargain. Even though Brooklynites think the prices are too high. New residents from Europe, same thing. Prices in the U.S. even in NYC are more reasonable than the major cities in Europe. When we were selling we had a lot of European couples looking at our place. I kept wondering if it was a trend that was being noticed or tracked, that Europeans who previously would also only buy in Manhattan, now think of Brooklyn as hip. I’ve been hearing Brooklyn gets more tourists now, too. The word is out. Whaddya gonna do.
The house was delivered vacant.The interior detail,garden and interior decorative painting,moldings,floors,etc are all in excellent condition.New floor to ceiling windows etc.Boerum Hill brownstones,depending on the condition would go for just under 2 million.Do you know the price of a 4 story,excellent condition with a garden in Manhattan? Not going to happen.And Brooklyn is all of a sudden “Hotter than Hot”.I suppose it’s all about what is in and what is excellent.
PS Adams street is NOT really the Heights.
Concord Village (195 Adams) is bargain compared to much of the area. A bit separated from Bklyn Hts proper blocks but with growth of DUMBO also very close I think place is a deal.
(for those looking for coop with doorman and don’t mind a bit bland looking). Nice grounds and subway on corner.
Some apts/bldgs in complex could be bit noisy if facing Tillary/Bklyn Bridge entrance – but 195 Adams set back and good spot in complex.
The 2 bedroom is in Concord Village. It’s stuck between the bridges, but has some decent deals,
as well as parking and a supermarket. It’s right
next to Dumbo, for half the money.
Is Concord Village even considered Brooklyn Heights? It’s my opinion that everything east of Cadman Plaza is either Downtown Brooklyn, Metrotech, or DUMBO.
I believe the Brooklyn Heights place is in Concord Village, which is across Cadman Plaza and more reasonable priced than most everything else in the Heights
Anon 12:05 — you make no sense. Maybe he only can afford the $2M with the rental income. Who knows?
12:18 — When I saw “Brooklyn Heights: $458K” I thought: “Studio”. Must be a dump 😉
I agree with 12:18, does anyone know what gives with the BH coop?
Maybe I’ve been looking at overpriced properties too long, but am I the only one that thinks the Brooklyn Heights coop went a little on the cheap side?
