Prices aside (because they’ll either get ’em or they won’t):
1) Don’t like the Parkside house – would take a lot of work to make this nice.
2) Midwood St. PLG house looks like a nice reno – love those marble sinks in the bedroom pass-thoughs, fireplaces. Though the kitchen may be small – hard to tell.
3) Winsdor Terrace place isn’t ugly – just cluttered. I’d make some cosmetic changes and I could live in it fine.
4) Cambridge Pl. would be taking on a labor of love, even at 1/4 the price. I think old frame houses are more work.
Actually, renting is cheaper in this market. It wasn’t a few years ago, and won’t always be, but it is now.
The Windsor Terrace house is a dump. Fugly.
Some houses take a lot more fixin’ than others and this one will be revealing its little foibles more than most.
2:37 does the ~R at the end of your post stand for republican?
I agree the Windsor Terrace house is way over priced. These house are wonderful but, most sell for 1.2 – 1.3. And, several months ago a house sold $1 mill in an estate sale.
i cannot believe that anyone thinks that renting is cheaper. it is not! no way. especially if you have a decent income.
Saw the Clinton Hill house a few years ago. Charming bones, but agree the kitchen, and now baths are horrible. Basement was an illegal rental. This house reminds me a lot of houses in Jamaica Plain, Boston, or Sommerville. Not really a rich person’s house, but at this price…
“With the Clinton Hill house you will be fixing things your whole life”.
LOL–that applies to ANY old house–unless you have LOTS of $$ to hire people to do everything, you can look at buying a brownstone as acquiring a new and facinating hobby. Anyone who doesn’t think they’re so inclined might be better off looking at newly built condos. Old houses aren’t for everyone.
