This Crown Heights house has been on the market since last February. It was listed at 899K in April, and the owner had very little flexibility in the price. It is a great house in many ways with lots of details, great light and plenty of space, but not your standard brownstone layout. The footprint is bigger- about 1200sf and rooms are probably smaller and there are more of them. Also, compared to a brownstone there is a smaller percentage of the space given over to the stair, since most of the space is on two floors.
Umm… wasn’t 1244 President on the market maybe 3-4 months back, at about 100k+ less? I could have -sworn- I remember that picture of the parking garage (old white Mercedes)…
I usually include that block in Crown Heights on my “driving trip thru brooklyn” for interested out-of-town guests.. beautiful.
Just drove throught the Crown Heights neighborhood. I am amazed. Really these are incredible houses and the yards in the neighborhood are gorgeous. It looks like some upscale suburb.
However the Kosher/Caribbean mix/clash would make some people feel alienated I suppose. But wow. It is gorgeous over there.
The Mary Kay G. thing is real …
The house on 9th st, listed in Carroll Gardens: feel sorry for the owner (now a rental building) who may have owned it forever and obviously is looking to get out: he/she probably didn’t expect to be in the ninth center of hell: the intersection of Hamilton Parkway and (overhead) the BQE. Garbage on street, noise overwhelming, high speed traffic constant, gas station across the street, breathing is difficult because of the polluted air, and the “parking in back” is a high wire-fenced space that has to be accessed from Hamilton (lord knows exactly how) and is virtually the “yard” of the house. Better that it was torn down and used as a pen for attacking pit bulls.

Check archive- May 9- for comments on the Henry St. house.
Significant price reduction since then. (was 2.2).
Hmm…seems a little strange
