That’s a skinny kitchen, but very nice. Big enough for anything I would do, but yeah, the table has to go; I am sure there is somewhere else for it. That’s not what is important. What is nice is the look and feel of it — the nice french doors mirror the design of the windowed cabinet doors and the butcher block works very nicely. I like it a lot.
Nomi,
Oh… THAT table.
Yes… it’s definitely out of place in that kitchen.
As is the red leather arm chair.
Pigeon, the coo-coo clock is in the Windsor Terrace house (also in 17th St.). I actually find that charming if a little “coo-coo.” (Agree with tradmod completely though about that house’s stolen living room. Do NOT understand that either. Or, rather, why they’d SHOW it that way even if it was somehow necessary to live with it like that.)
I was talking about the first listing, the one listed as Midwood which is not actually in Midwood but some other section of the vast counrty of Flatbush.
Nobody said life is fair. It’s not.

Ironballs. I am not saying life is fair, not at all.
Life is unfair, but that does not we should allow fundamental injustice to continue. The wall street washington partnership needs to end.
If we accept injustice as a rule always, our founding fathers would not have fought against “taxation without representation” and gained our independence from the British.
Vote Schumer and Gillibrand out of office this november!
I don’t understand the parlor floor of the Windsor Terrace house at all. A tiny, windowless room for the living room? So depressing and creepy, like a rubber room in an asylum. They put a bedroom in what is really the living room trying to increase the number of bedrooms in the house but that room is what it is – a living room. They shouldn’t show the house like that even if that’s how they used the layout of the parlor floor themselves. Make some family members share a room or something but get the bed out of the living room when it’s time to sell.
Nomi,
The entire interior decor of the not-Midwood 17th street house is so nutty that it’s hard to point the finger at any one item. If I had to point the finger, though, I would point it at the dark brown coo-coo clock against the bright blue wall. Coo-coo!
How could not one of you far-nastier-than-I people have said anything about the table/island(?) in the kitchen in the not-Midwood 17th street house???
It’s wrong to leave this up to me.
(Self-inoculation: Nice large late Victorian(?) house. Should be decorated according to owner’s taste, not mine.)
Nobody said life is fair. It’s not.
But within short order the stock market and housing market will resume their downward free-fall.
No zillion dollar government bailout with follow to prop things up.
The fan is about to get hit with something stinky and brown.
The 12th street house is right beside a house that had a pretty bad fire in the basement apartment a few weeks ago. The whole house is boarded up now. They seemed to have some smoke damage in this house as well. They were ripping out insulation and dry wall on the wall towards the burned out house a few days later. This burned out place and the OTB parlor don’t make for the nicest of neighbors.
