There isn’t much information on this Gravesend property, but StreetEasy reveals that this is a two-family home converted from a one-family, and it is on a 4,800-square-foot lot. Entered into contract on 12/16/10; closed on 9/39/10; deed recorded on 11/18/2010.
2. COBBLE HILL $2,500,000
22 Strong Place GMAP
This three-family home sold in 2009 for $2,055,000, then went back on the market April of 2010 for $2,875,000, according to StreetEasy. The price definitely took a cut but at least the owners still came out with a profit. This brownstone was also bought by writer Martin Amis, a purchase the New York Observer called “a holy grail, of course, for writers and poseurs.” You can still check out the listing here. Entered into contract on 8/26/10; closed on 12/8/2010; deed recorded on 12/15/10.
3. PARK SLOPE $1,680,112.50
392 3rd Street, #2 GMAP
392 3rd Street is a rental-come-condo building that looks like it is pulling in more than decent sales. This unit that sold is a garden duplex with three bedrooms and 2,700 square feet. It has been on the market since 2008, first for $1,749,000, then $1,700,000, and finally down to $1,695,000. Entered into contract on 9/30/2010; closed on 11/18/2010; deed recorded on 12/16/10.
4. MIDWOOD $1,275,500
3534 Bedford Avenue GMAP
Sale was for a one-family home with 2,415 square feet. Very little via StreetEasy. Entered into contract on 8/5/2010; closed on 12/01/2010; deed recorded on 12/15/10.
5. BROOKLYN HEIGHTS $1,267,721.25
360 Furman Street, #736 GMAP
Details of this unit haven’t popped up anywhere, but judging by the price we’d guess this is one of the larger two bedrooms, which usually come in around 1,500 square feet. Entered into contract on 10/27/2010; closed on 12/8/10; deed recorded on 12/17/10.

What does “rental-come-condo” mean? If you mean “rentals with condos,” then you’re looking for the Latin “cum,” meaning “with.”
Now I will sit back and watch to see who will stain this thread with a “cum” joke.

September 39th?
@Carol Gardens, I think getting written up just in the observer counts as “barely covered” 🙂
Also, Martin Amis is (or at least was) a big name in a very small world, and one in which paparazzi don’t really follow people around very often. I don’t even know if he is that big a name in NY publishing, but I assume he is.
SJP is a mid-sized name in a much bigger world.
Amis purchase was in the Observer, linked to by Brownstoner, etc. But not as much excitement as Norah Jones.
Am I the only one who thinks it’s weird that the mere rumor of Sarah Jessica Parker looking at property in Brooklyn gets spread all over the blogosphere but Martin Amis actually buys a place here and it’s barely covered? (unless I missed all the coverage somehow, which is entirely possible)
LOL @ Grandpa
You’ll have to be more specific t- no way they catch it with hints that subtle.
Gravesend sales are kind of all over the place. Sometimes small dingy frame houses sell for $4 million, and modern houses on bigger lots for $2.5M; it’s probably all about proximity to the right synagogue.
Looks like Gravesend is slipping a bit with such a low sales price.
Are the dates for the Gravesend sale based on the Mayan or the Martian Calendars?
