Sterling vs 10th street is not totally valuable. 10th is about the same size as sterling but has an extension. yes not a brownstone but a nice brick house on a great block closer to the park and a great school zone. PS282 is not PS107! So not sure Sterling is such a deal like RAR seems to say
Nokilissa, I submit that, in the case of a garden, a smaller one might be more aesthetically pleasing than a big one. It’s not the size of the plot but the skill of the gardener!
No Bold Type Guest. Size is not everything.
But it’s something 😉
RAR – re: the Bklyn house property that went fast on 10th Street. I beg to differ that Sterling is a better location. First, 10th St was zoned for a better school, and I would wager many of the potential buyers for these houses have kids and would like the option of a good public school (that’s certainly true for us). Also, Sterling is further from park. And despite what people say about the F, it’s a perfectly good train. To me, Sterling is certainly worth a look, but it’s in “estate condition” so the price is by no means a bargain, esp in this market where even houses are getting price cuts left and right. I’m sure it needs a minimum of 200-300K of work, if not more…
Nokilisssa…size isn’t everything! At least not with gardens.
Isn’t the Avenue K house still in Midwood? Although the other side of Flatbush around there is Flatlands. Don’t know exactly where the border is.
One more thing, and hate to be argumentative, but don’t you think that for 1.8 million and only 2,400 sq. ft. total, the kitchens and baths should be, at least a little, “fancy schmancy”?
Renovating them to, say, Mrs. Limestone’s standards (which is the closest and easiest I could come to quickly describing what we would be doing) would be several hundred thousand in all. That puts the house well over 2 million. A big price tag for 2400. It also appears to have a small garden.
But then again, I could be wrong. Happens all the time!
There must have been a yellow and red paint sale that Mr. Lewis of Sterling Place found at the Home Depot one day.

The fascade is very plain. And houses are indeed about work – but 1.450 is priced sop that you could live there and make renovations while you live. That house doesnt have a single kitchen or bathroom that doesnt need a gut. The walls crumble to the touch on some units, and the only period details are linoleum. Its not work – its a gut.
