I’m with DIBS on this one. At the $2MM+ price point, a buyer expects central air, nice master suite, good closets, etc. Retrofitting central air is a pain, even with a split-system (Mr. Slim).
I don’t get these posts where people say “This is a brownstone so “___insert comment about how there is no need for a certain luxury___”. The pool of buyers at these price points that will overlook basic luxuries because you have the perfect crown molding or original mantle is a small, small group.
The basement is for storage, likes2lurk.
For $2MM, central air and all the other bells and whistles you could think of should be there, including a nice walk in closet and an ensuite bath. But you need a place to store your boxes of crap that should be in the basement, so I understand. 🙂
Central air? It’s a brownstone. We don’t even have window units in ours, just fans. If you want central air, move to Atlanta.
As for “ensuite masterbath,” you’d rather have the storage space instead. Trust me.
Tough sell on that 2nd st “2 br” rental.
I was thinking the same thing, BrooklynLove. Perfect layout. The layout, the nice size separate laundry room on the same floor as the bedrooms, and good closets more than makes up for the narrow width. I’d rather have this house than a 2-foot wider house with a bad layout and no walk-in closets or en suite master bath. But I agree for $2 million I want central air. Zoned for each floor.
The more expensive the land, the narrower the lot and vice versa. Obviously. Where do you live? Under a rock?
$2 million for a 17ft wide house anywhere in the world is nuts . . .
Especially considering prices in Brooklyn have hardly begun to correct yet.
the floorplan in the 2nd street place is among the best i’ve seen in a brownstone.
> Snark, I really like the block on 16th Street…
Agreed. It’s a great block. And I agree it might move quickly if they drop the price below the million dollar mark. But as sweetlou pointed out above, 538 16th street sold for $840,000. I’m guessing this goes for the high 800s to low 900s.
