Maple Street has been at that price without budging for nearly a year. Crazily overpriced, a very similar house a few doors down went for $920k. If the reno is as good as the pictures, I could see it breaking $1M, but this is a 2-story house asking a price that 4-stories in the neighborhood were getting at the peak. On a PSF basis, it’s asking Park Slope prices. That said, if they don’t need to sell, then I guess they shouldn’t worry about it. Gorgeous block.
Wasder, I lived not far from there for 10 years, and, to me at least, it’s not all that far to the F and G trains, or even to Borough Hall for that matter. I personally like Cheever Place, which, like Strong Place and Tompkins Place nearby, is one of those beautiful, double blocks, with no thru traffic. But I’m admittedly partial to Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, and Carroll Gardens so I’d be willing to pay more for a house in that area.
DIBS had a baby?
yes, Wasder. Since same size house across street sold for $1.925 last fall.
farther from subway farther from the riff-raff.
The Cheever Place home does look nice.
It’s a pity its front parlor windows have been chopped off at the bottoms. (Blocked with brick). Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about restoring such windows to their original glory? How big of an ordeal is it?
Am I the only one that thinks Cheever place is too far from public transport to command that kind of price?
I saw PLG. Nice renovation. $300,000 over priced. Been listed for a very long time.
I like that Mr. B. is including Craigslist postings, like the Bed Stuy home, above. Very grass-roots of you, Mr. B.
DIBS has been induced!
No!
