Boerum Hill house is mad sweet. What a great neighborhood. I’m surprised they didn’t get well over 2mm for that house. I’m in process of buying a 2br in Boerum Hill. I close next week. It’s on Atlantic. Can’t wait. Love the area
“1.8 for a 3 story. Was it extra wide or something?”
And it’s close to Washington (not quite certified gentrified). Hat off to the sellers. Good luck new owners.
“PH house was 1) a one-family and 2) in move-in condition and 3) with a sweet garden.”
Prospect Heights house has kitchens on the garden and parlor floors so it may be a legal 1 family, but was used as a 2. That means it is NOT move in ready for a 1 family.
It looks from the floor plan that it’s not just a 3 story, but also narrow.
I like PH, but given it’s not a full sized house I’d say someone overpaid.
11:01, 1 bedrooms don’t cost in the 300’s in most cities in the US (Chicago, Seattle, Baltimore, DC, San Diego, San Francisco, Portland, Boston, St. Louis, Kansas City, Miami). You think they should cost that much in one of the best cities in the world?? Is there no premium for NYC being one of the capitals of the planet?
So 3 bedrooms in Park Slope go for 1.4 million and up now??
PH house was 1) a one-family and 2) in move-in condition and 3) with a sweet garden. Those things are a rarity (trust me, I’ve been looking), and absolutely command premium $psf. Add to that the house is super cute, and on a nice block in an area that is getting nicer every day…I’m not surprised it went for what it did. (Though I wish it hadn’t, cuz now the comps are that much higher and I can’t afford it!)
all I care about is studios falling back down into the 200k range and 1beds in the 300k range.
one can only dream
1.8 for a 3 story. Was it extra wide or something?
10:39- I concur.
I was under the impression that this place sold back in May for $1.695M. And $125K over asking! It’s a great block in PH, with many townhouses undergoing renovations.
