We live in LM and I think that 3rd Street house in Park Slope is gorgeous. Seems to get very nice light, from the photos. Nice vibe. The kitchen ain’t too bad.
For most of the 30+ years I’ve lived in LM prices were 1/2 of those in PS.It’s only in the last couple of years that this ratio has been broken.
Third Street has always been a triple prime block and historically one of the most expensive in the slope, LFM is lovely, but the neighborhood is a lot smaller than the slope, and it has always traded at a discount. I remember looking at a gorgeous limestone in LFM 6 years ago for under $500k – at a time when 3rd street was over 1Mil and well out of my price-range (still is). Seems like LFM has more than tripled in that time-frame, where 3rd street has only doubled. I think 3rd street between 7/8th is one of the best blocks in the slope. It’s a good deal…too bad I can’t afford it.
My mistake, Jimmy Legs. I thought Irving was on the far side of Classon.
The Sunset Park house is certainly not as bad as the poster above. However, that price between 3rd and 4thnear the BQE is a little high.
irving is in clinton hill, check the map. classon is the border.
That sunset park house is quite a steal. Only 750K to have the BQE about 50 feet from your bedroom window, plus convenient access to the diverse selection of drug dealers and prostitutes that purvey their wares underneath. Let me go get my checkbook right now.
Third Street Kitchen is really horrible for a house that otherwise looks great. Florescent lighting and bad, cheap looking cabinets and counter-tops. I don’t get it.
I’ve seen the Irving Place house and it has promise but definitely needs a lot of work. The parlor floor has good bones but there are some random non-original walls making it into a sort of rabbit warren (the broker said we should feel free to bring in a contractor and s/he could take a sledgehammer to them). The owner’s kitchen has a 60’s faux-stone wall and old cabinets and appliances but was large. The 3rd floor apartment is in pretty bad shape but I believe it is only a legal 2-family anyway. The broker seemed like a straight-shooter.
