warren house is tiny but parking space and big garden are making it up for it.
It will sell easly, all it takes is a frustrated couple lokking for two bedroom apt in Manhattan.
Warren place hauses are so cute.
Easy BrownBomber, what Leo said is totallly on point. Marcy projects are pretty far from there, and the PJ’s that are around this area are all fairly small and sprinkled about. And what’s more, I know of some smallere houses in the area that have sold for around 700K. But the fact remians that 1 mil for this house is indeed a joke. It’s just not that nice a property, probably has a standard flip reno, and has a tiny yard. But, the park in front of it could be really nice one day…
Thanks for the comment Leo. It was much appreciated.
If you want to go down this road today, please go to the Archive section and read countless threads on BS, Gentrification, Owning an Apt v. Brownstone, Brownstone Brooklyn, Downtown Brooklyn Development Projects, NYC History, yadayadayadayada….. The rest of us will actually like to engage in some meaningful dialogue.
Leo,
Your comments are so untrue. Have you ever visited Bed-Stuy? Sure, it has its areas, but to call it a dump it’s very extreme. Before you post such an ignorant comment familiarize yourself first.
The property is far away from Marcy Projects. I think you mean the Lexington Houses. I don’t understand why you had to make sure that you mentioned that — anyway.
As much as I love every area of Bed-Stuy, I have to agree that this particular spot has not arrived at that asking price. Seller’s start hearing that in Bed-Stuy a house went for $1MM and they start thinking…hey my house is in the Stuy too…hmmm. But as a seller, you have to realize that not only are you selling your home, but the amenities also. The A/C trains are about 12 blocks away and the G train is quite a walk as well. So I think that this house is certainly over priced, but I’m no expert.
Why would anyone buy anything in Bed-Stuy is not clear to me. You can buy a great apartment in Park Slope and even in Manhattan for 1 mil. Bed-Stuy is a dump.
Thanks for the Broker’s lexicon lesson 1:10PM. LOL.
720 Marcy Ave in Bed-Stuy is a joke! Who are they kidding? That section of BS barely commands $600k let alone $1mm. How far is this from Marcy Projects? Also, log onto PShark and check out all of the transactions associated with this property. I can’t follow the trail. Is any of it unusual? Looks like a flip. Didn’t this property just exchange hands at $500k in 12/05. That was probably the right price for this section of BS. $1mm is laughable!!
“unique” means a layout only a lunatic could put up with. “drenched with sunlight” means that you may not actually need lamps on during the day. “winter views” means there is a tree covering the windows. “bring your architect” means gut renovation. “needs a little TLC” means gut renovation. “bring it back to its former greatness” means money-pit.
