ltjbukem–I’m with you. That house is awesome. I don’t know why everyone on this site is so caught up in the whole Henry James thing. It’s 2006 people, lots of rooms with dark wood molding is so two centuries ago. My dream house would be a Dwell (magazine) house on PPW.
Although I pray for a housing correction, I add to the position that that extra special clinton hill listing is very well priced. It’s consistently expensive with it’s comps.
Also, CH adds driver value. It’s much easier to park here than in PS.
another question regarding the ft. greene house, according to the terrible 1 pg acrobat advert there’s a 1 bedroom renting for $1,400 in this brownstone. is that the going rate for rent in ft greene? I would assume they’re charging more over there.
What do yawl think about the ditmas park victorian? Under or overpriced? Has anyone seen it yet?
There are totally legitimate reasons to live in Clinton Hill other than as a second or third choice to Park Slope. There are plenty of people for whom it might be first choice, whether for diversity, housing stock, or whatever. But those people are fewer — if that weren’t so, the Washington house would be selling for $4.5M, and the 6th Avenue house for $900K.
But you read this board, and you’d think that people were fleeing eastward across Flatbush by the thousands, while only an unlucky few were left behind in PS, BH, CG and so on.
Okay, we’ll just have to wait and see who’s right about the Washington price.
why is that Ft Greene house listed with Massey? aren’t they mostly into the commercial market?
Clinton Hill vs. Park Slope seems a tired competition. Those of us who prefer Clinton Hill may do so for reasons of wanting to live in a more racially diverse neighborhood, and are hoping the huge housing stock of apartment buildings and post-war co-ops keep it that way. That said, if all the houses in Clinton Hill, and on this site, are over 1 million, it kind of isn’t fun anymore. Maybe there can be a Junior Varsity Brownstoner site for those of us more interested in the financially achievable and less interested in the truly over-the-top?
“I’m one of those people who will compromise on the house rather than the area.”
Yeah, that’s going to fall on deaf ears in this board. (“But Fresh Direct delivers there!” “But you can send your kids to private school!” “But I’d rather eat out in Manhattan anyway!” “But safety is totally a block-by-block issue!”)
My dream house would be the Washington Ave house — picked up and moved to park Slope. Given that that’s not going to happen, both places seem reasonable, for people with entirely different priorities.
