I also visited Reeve Place yesterday–they did a beautiful job with the renovation.
If I had a million dollars…
Isn’t the Farragut house in South Midwood (Victorian Flatbush) rather than East Flatbush?
Can someone please tell me what percentage of homes were bought with Jumbo mortgages? Since Jumbo mortgages are not covered by the new Obama plan.
Oh, that’s interesting about the bathroom. I grew up in a similar era house with only the original one bathroom (three kids). So, to me, the extra half bath seems like a lot. I think you made the right choice too.
I am the owner of the Reeve Place house. I would like to thank everyone for the kind words. I just wanted clarify a few things.
The home has a half bath on the first floor and a full bath on the second floor. When we purchased the home it had two full baths and we struggled with the decision of whether or not to keep the full bath downstairs or build a much needed closet on this floor (many of these old homes have very few closets until they are renovated). After much consideration we decided to go with the closet with the idea that we would almost never use a shower on the first floor. After living in the home for more than three years now we know we made the right decision.
Yes, we purchased the house for $755,000 in 2004. For those of you who have done a gut renovation you know how much they cost.
If you have not seen our house yet, we look forward to seeing you at a future open house.
Went to Reeve Place today. Lovely, but small, especially 2nd floor. Considering extensive renovation, though, it’d seem that if they don’t get close to asking price, that they’d make little or no profit.
Oh, backyard a little scruffy and unfortunately backs right up on an apt. building, but still nice. Not sure why a photo of it wasn’t included.
Since I’m into research today.
Reeve place last sold in 2004 to the current owner for $755,000.00.
Does anyone have advice on how the price on this settles considering comps plus his asking price?
Very much like the reeve place one. But, after going to the broker’s NYTime listting and seeing comps I’m definately wondering about price:
