Pretty brisk business in the brownstone neighborhoods and a head-scratcher in Manhattan Beach.
1. COBBLE HILL $3,950,000
13 Tompkins Place GMAP (left)
This 4,100-sf townhouse was originally listed for $4.5 million in February, according to StreetEasy. Asking dropped by a quarter mil about 5 months ago. House has two units, one of which is a 5-bedroom triplex. Deed recorded 9/02.
2. MANHATTAN BEACH $3,050,000
150 Hastings Street GMAP (right)
3,532-sf house on a 6,000-sf lot half a block from Manhattan Beach Park. Property Shark records show it last traded for $800,000 in 2005—quite the meteoric appreciation.
3. BOERUM HILL $2,700,000
253 Dean Street Street GMAP
20 ft x 42 ft townhouse with an owner’s triplex and rental unit. The property sold quickly: It was listed for $2.495 million in late May. The Los Angeles-based person who signed as a trustee for the purchase has the same name as someone who’s reportedly dating a star of the TV show “Grey’s Anatomy.” Coincidence? Deed recorded 9/03.

298 Lafayette Avenue GMAP
3,496-ft, 2-family house priced at $1.995 million when it was an Open House Pick this May. Deed recorded 9/03.

16 4th Place, Unit 1 GMAP

satoriz, I assume you’re referring to Sandra Oh. Perhaps she was on her way to Paul Giammati’s home in BH to discuss a sequel to Sideways?!
Manhattan Beach has a large, well-to-do Russian population that routinely tears down existing homes in favor of McMansions, such as the one pictured above.
Dave, DOWhat is never wrong. Don’t you get it? If homes sell at or above ask, they are future foreclosures and he’s a genius. If they sell below ask, he was right about the Mutant Real Estate Bubble. He can’t lose. Other than the small inconvenient matter of his prediction that we are all doomed on October 16. 37 days left. DOWhat, where’s your countdown now? Must I keep reminding you?
Even with a haircut, nearly 4 mil for 4,000 sf. in Cobble Hill is pretty impressive. Looking back there was a lot of scorn at the Clinton Hill price, but someone liked it well enough.
Manhattan Beach–can only assume in 05 there was something different on that lot, and that the buyer is a Syrian Jew or a member of some other clannish sect. Again, that’s not a home meant to be marketed to the general public.
At first glance the CG triplex looks to be a decent buy (especially with those windows and yard), but I wonder how useful that rec room area shown on the floorplan is?
My choice would be the BH house, because I like that neighborhood a lot. Looks like a really pleasant place and was obviously priced right.
