I need to check comps… mine all have original detail from the 90’s.
How many can you sell and how fast? I can even round up a few more if I canvass the neighborhood.
Okay, I looked at the other houses. That tudor makes me cry, it’s so gorgeous. The kitchen doesn’t bother me in the Park Place place, at least it shows some creativity, and repainting is not difficult.
As for the PLG place, from the text of the article it looks like both units are rented. As a renter, I’m not sure I’d bother making the bed or staging for a pesky realtor either. I do think the price is a little high for the location, but what do I know? House looks like it has great bones and updated mechanicals. Soo much better for the money than those condos on Dean.
And I want that Tudor mansion. Damn. Bxgirl, we should split it! I have cats too!
I really like the unrenovated kitchen in the PLG place so much more than the renovated one. Looks like it was pretty fancy when it was originally done, nice to see an owner that didn’t rip it out.
Why, WHY? Just let me crawl home to my linoleum’d, painted cheap wood cabinets with formica countertops, scratched stainless steel sink and least expensive Home Depot stove ever sold kitchen. I will be mourning in fetal position beneath my antique wood table. sniff. Copper range hood? I have one lousy copper jello mold (ok, I have a few) and they have a range hood and a copper farmhouse sink????….sob…
In fact that image of the kitchen offended me so much I decided to see what was in it.

You can only do so much with a tiny image but some PP reveals not only gorgeous cabinetry, a red enamel Wolff stove, a hammered copper farmhouse sink, all mentioned in the ad, but also a copper range hood.
Lovely!
Sigh- I so love that Tudor house. No- that kitchen I could easily sell my cats for (s’ok denton- they’re alley cats, not like your beautiful abysinnian. I can get more). And I still can’t figure out what the kitchen is in the house on Midwood. It looks like it tried to be deco and failed. And why would you put a deco kitchen in a Victorian/edwardian limestone? If you can explain that, Architerrorist, I’ll totally forgive you 🙂
Arch, the problem is not with the kitchen or bxgirl’s interpretation, but with the sh*t photography. You can’t really see what’s up with the kitchen unless you look very carefully and read the text at the same time.
It continues to amaze me that to sell a million dollar house brokers take a lil’ pocket digicam and do it themselves. OK, maybe a million dollar house is too cheap these days to bring real studio lighting. But could you at least bring a cheap DSLR with a shoe-mount flash to open up the shadows? If you did that, you could hope to see that the red enamel range is really red enamel.
manofelt should change his/her handle to “moronofelt”. Marlborough Road house (do know the owners, full disclosure..) is not particularly close to Cortelyou and there is NO train noise. I have spend many a wonderful evening in that big beautiful backyard and have never heard anything is except the purring of their housecat. But I will say that many a jealous Manhattanite has remarked how much closer a WALK to the subway station this home is to their own walk to the subway. Jeez, they say ” I thought you lived out in the ‘burbs here”. How come it only took me twenty minutes to get here from sixth floor walk-up in the East Village? Three entire floors AND easy access to Manhattan? I hate you!!”
Yes, that’s usually what they say after they come a visitin’ to our hood. Right after, “I didn’t even know this neighborhood existed!” Which may or may not be supplemented with: “…until New York Magazine voted that place (The Farm on Adderly) best french fries.”
