Update: A reader just dropped us a note to inform that Pratt has already sold 275 Washington to a developer who’s splitting it into three tax lots: the carriage house, the side lot, and the house. He’s now selling just the house for $3.5 million. As for the other two lots? Condos. This should be interesting. We’ll be watching this one like a hawk.
Hows 789k for the bay ridge limestone with a possible rental? the street is busy.. I don’t know what the values are in bay ridge.
^^CH that is
overpriced.
lets see how many asinine justifications based on its location we get
I’m loving the house on Hoyt, but Vicki, please…re-do the photos! They are out of focus. Agents and owners….stop the madness! You’re getting paid millions for these homes and some of the renovations are half a mil. The camera is an important tool to market these houses…learn to use it or hire someone who can!
actually I think it would be a nice condo conversion. its nice to dream that someone with 3.5 mil to blow would chose this house in clinton hill as opposed to other options but this house isn’t as grand as the pfizer place and it doesn’t have as much significant history attached at that house sat for a while. I’d find it hard to believe that someone would just buy this as a family home and preserve it. the only way to dream of making it worth your money is to turn it into condos and at this prices I’m all for it. everyone wants to cry about these brownstones that aren’t being preserved but where are ppl to buy who can’t afford these ridiculous prices? they need options too. I assure you these holy preservationist are the same people who will put their 13ft wide brownstone on the market for 2 million and think someone won’t chop it up to make their money back. there are tons of people who appreciate the architecture of the brownstones but because of the greed of ppl in real estate they’re priced out so they need more options. if I had the money I’d totally turn this into nice apartments and try to preserve as much detail as I can.
275 Washington in Clinton Hill is a double lot too. I’m not sure if they are selling that with the mansion. Also, the lot goes from Washington to Waverly, so if you got all of the land, you’d have the equivalent of four brownstone lots.
I pray that an individual buys it for a family home as opposed to breaking it up into condos. I personally think it is more of a light filled, functional and inviting house vs the Pfizer building. I’ve dreamt of this place… ah well. 🙂
Methinks this is the large mansion recently owned by Pratt Institute.
The property has a huge side yard (do not know if this is included) and not too long ago had a carriage house with apt. on Hall St. (do not know if this is included). If all that is in the price, maybe priced right.
the ch house is own by pratt. don’t they need dorms?
I don’t understand how they’re pricing the CH house. Didn’t the Pfizer mansion go into contract for $3.2M? That house has over 10,000 square feet (versus 5760 for this one), a double lot with parking space for 2 cars and enough leftover outdoor space for a decent backyard.
Well, enough griping b/c it’s not like I could afford either one but it’s nice to dream….
