i saw the 8th street house last weekend too. we almost ran out screaming. clearly several people died in there–2 wheelchairs in the kitchen. no, i’m not kidding. they have some balls asking 899k for something that needs to have an h bomb dropped on it and then rebuilt.
All of these sellers have got to be f***ing kidding…!
The 8th street Park Slope house is a trainwreck. I saw it last weekend. Needs a complete gut job – or better yet teardown and re-build. The rooms are tiny, the floors are slanted and the backyard extension looks like it was stapled on the main house. Oh and the neighbors 3 huge growling/barking dogs in the backyard did not help any. I don’t know how you’d relax with all that barking.
How about the t-rex skull in front of the Bed Stuy house???!
I have to disagree with anon 4:17–the ostrich is so so so bizarre. weird that someone owns it; perhaps even weirder that the broker included it in the photos.
Re Lovemycarroll’s comment. Yes, have been going to open houses and house tours to get renovation ideas. The house tour houses are the belles of the ball and the houses for sale are usualy the wallflowers.
But BTW I think the ostrich is really ok, its someone’s personal taste in decor but looks OK. Not in the same league as garbage or dirty clothes lying around
Re: the PLG house, I don’t know that I’d agree with Anon. 12:29 that Rutland I is a MUCH nicer block than Lincoln II. Granted Lincoln II is only 1/2 (the south side)in Lefferts Manor, but its a very nice block nevertheless. The houses on the LM and non-LM side are similar (except for the back of one apt. house on the N. side) and the block has many very large trees.
FWIW I agree that there may be nicer houses in PLG for the money.
I’m so with you CrownHeightsProud on the point of people n ot tidying up before they put their house up for too much $$$ and for the whole world to see! When we were looking i couldn’t get over it? You’re asking what, and you can’t even take the stinky disheds out of the sink on an open house day!
But ya know, this did work to our advantage when we saw the house we bought…it was a total f*&$king
disaster, but somehow we managed to see beyond the filth and stench when i think few other people could. The mess continued up to closing and the owner left mountains of garbage in the middle of every room.
where are the brokers? aren’t they the ones takiing the photos? wouldn’t you say ‘hey, about the ostrich…’
bizarre
Re Prospect Place – Yes, aren’t those 2 kitchens charming – don’t know which is worse. Why to people plop a few cabinets on a wall and think they have renovated a kitchen. The area above them – I guess because of high B.S. ceilings make them look so lonely there in the middle of the wall. Yuch!
