“Or are we, as a society, so imbued with a sense of entitlement to instant satisfaction that anything but rapidly attainable perfection is just totally unacceptable?” Shush John, leave well enough alone. That kind of attitude makes for bargains for those of us who are smart enough to see past the superficial 🙂
BTW the Albermarle-Kenmore Terrace house is part of a row identical to the brick colonial revival houses on Midwood I in PLG and is probably somewhat less costly. This is an interesting, if small, HD off of Church Ave.

YES.
S.Slope,
I’m not sure if it IS #84 (although I’ve no reason to doubt you). It IS on the south side of Fenimore (which is one-way west). The south side is in neither Lefferts Manor, nor the PLG HD (the boundaries for both are in the middle of the street), but it is a nice street nevertheless.
BTW, the Parkside Ave. house is part of a row that is rather plain, compared to the VERY grand houses further east on that block, but they’re still rather nice houses

I’m always curious, when people say this apparently based on a few pictures of a seemingly perfectly habitable house, on what basis they are making the statement and where the line is drawn between “required” and “desirable” work.
Obviously stuff like rotting single pane windows, significantly sagging floors, falling masonry, seive-like roofs, decrepit MEP systems and the like are “required”. Not quite in the same category, but probably also classifiable as “required” would be kitchens and bathrooms that are incapable of performing up to modern day standards. I just get the impression that a lot of people on this forum put things like replacing unfortunately colored tiles, or getting rid of Home Depot kitchen cabinets on the “required” list. Those are clearly “desired”, not “required” things and can be purchased over a period of time as finances allow. Or are we, as a society, so imbued with a sense of entitlement to instant satisfaction that anything but rapidly attainable perfection is just totally unacceptable?
ft green sounds fishy!!!
whats wrong with it?????
FORT GREEN- WTF
Tenants?
Rent Stabilized?
The Albermarle house will need a lot of work. I saw it last week. It has a lot of wallpaper on the walls and cielings. The block is very charming and quiet. The surrounding area seems very safe, but is bustling and not all that quiet. Close proximity to the B/Q. If you are willing to do a good amount of work, and can put up with the area, the house and block are definitely unique.
Fort Green house way underpriced. So strange
