NO WAY. THAT HOUSE IN BEDSTUY WOULD HAVE BEEN ABOUT 150K FIVE YEARS AGO.
YOU BEEN BUYIING SOME OF THE WACKY CRACKY THEY SELL IN BROWNSTONER’S HOOD?
Prices in BS are crazy for the area (amenties etc) but don’t seem to have incresed that much, given the general increases. This would have been about 400,000 5 years ago.
Regarding the Bed Stuy house – Is the bathroom on the parlor floor on stilts? I’ve actually seen an extension on the parlor floor that was, so it’s not unheard of, although a bit weird. Seems like a nice place, although, I’d have to get the heat gun out immediately and strip that woodwork.Then I’d go after those ceilings. Price seems a bit high for the size of the house, and for all of the work needed.
I was referencing the house in BS
I have looked at several houses on this block and they have all seemed very nice although they in need of work. This particular house seems nice but I hate the fact that they painted the wainscotting white. If you buy this this home stripping the wood is going to be a nightmare. Who would think that BedStuy would have gone up this much? Only in NYC KIds
Looks like the Bed-Stuy house might have some interesting detail (notwithstanding unfortunate drop ceilings) – pier mirror, mantles, etc.
I appreciate your comments, anonymous at 2006. There is a house with not too many bedrooms in BSW which had absolutely no detail and no designer reno, and it sold for several hundred thousand above ask (and above the million mark). This house beats it hands down, even with one bathroom.
I was anon 12:05 and I do know the neighborhood very well. Lived on Bev Rd for many years. But if you are looking at comps in the immediate vicinity, I would imagine that having only one full bath is the reason that it is priced slightly less. IMHO, the type of family that is coming into an area and driving the prices up- I say this having just sold a brownstone in PS- is looking for things like extra bathrooms. They will put them in, but again, that gets figured into the cost of the house. Either way, the house is lovely.
I saw 351 Adelphi a few weeks ago and it’s an over-priced mess.
