Open House Picks

No Brooklynnative. It is about 8 minutes at a good clip to the Q at Dekalb & Flatbush. No big deal. Or you could go straight south to Cumberland at Greene and catch the C.

1:21, what do you mean about the “cosmic yellow lights”? And what’s with the confusion about Washington Park? It runs along the east-ish side of Fort Greene Park.

$1.43 for South Midwood?

I don’t know. There have been a few attempts to get this kind of cash over by Brooklyn College, but I don’t know what the houses in question actually fetched. Anyone know?

You could plunk down $100-200k less and get a slightly less over the top house but, for my money, far better situated home in Ditmas Park West or Beverley Square West.

The lights above the moldings in the living room of the Washington Park house are weird. “Cosmic” as 1:21 says. Definitely a very suburban reno done in this house. But it’s a nice house, huge lot (which can be a downside for those who don’t like yardwork) and it seems a realistic price. Got to love a wraparound porch.

Okay, Clinton Hill house realtors – one crappy pocket camera snapshot of the exterior and you want people to show up to see a 2-story house priced at $1.3MM in a neighborhood getting attention for increased crime right now? Hire a professional photographer. Get a floorplan done. Like you know, the professional brokers who are more successful than you and for a reason.

I knew Midwood was a little far out there, but never realized it was located in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean off the coast of West Africa. (Click on the view map on the listing if you don’t believe me.)

The washington park house is lovely, not sure about the cosmic yellow lights in the sitting room though. Great deck.
