WT house was on the market a month ago, showed on that weekend, buyer fell through, and is now back on the market.
It is two floors and unfinished basement you need to put in a bathroom downstairs and update quite a lot to make it a good one family. To make it a two family duplex over rental you have to do a complete english basement renovation, and then you don’t have a basement..
A house very near and very similar to the Wycoff Street house sold recently for $1.4m.
hummmm, let’s see. Pay a mortgage of $10,000 per month for a 1.3 million dollar house or a mortgage of $5,000 a month for a townhouse of similar size and detail. One in Boerum Hill the other in Bedford-Stuyvesant. For folks looking to set down roots in Brooklyn I guess that Bainbridge Street house is not a bad buy after all, factor in a rental income and realistically speaking, a working couple could live well in Brooklyn, not 15 minutes to Manhattan over the Williamsburg bridge. The Boerum Hill house is beautiful but no nurse, fireman or police officer could afford it. Bedford Stuyvesant is the last of the affordable Brownstone neighborhoods. Period.
About that place in WT, I love Love LOVE the paneling and wallpaper. Wouldn’t change a thing.
I have to agree about the windsor terrace house too. I might be able to buy that number if the house were in pristine condition but it clearly needs some updating.
…and Bainbridge on the far side of Malcom X.
Doesn’t matter what they ask though…low-ball is king!
No way on the Bainbridge listing. I live in Bed-Stuy and am a fan of where it is now and where it’s going in the future, but this listing sold for about 1/2 price in 2005 and is less than 16′ wide. Plus, it’s only a 2-family. For $700K and NOT in the Historic District proper it is not priced to sell. Sorry.
If anything, I’d say the Wyckoff house is priced low, presumably because it’s on the block between the two housing projects.
i think the boerum hill house looks really nice. and though i’m a huge windsor terrace fan, i think that house seems over-priced in comparison: it’s one 1 story shorter, the rental apt. would bring a lot less, and, if the market sags, won’t closer-commute neighborhoods like boerum hill be more likely to hold their value?
