Apparently buyers are not willing to pay a kingly sum for the new Tuscan-style townhouses in Red Hook. Four of the newly-constructed homes at 93, 95,97 and 99 King Street hit the market last August at $1,300,000 while a fifth was priced at $750,000. None of them have sold to date, prompting two price cuts in the last three months that, Curbed noticed earlier this week, have brought the asking price on the four larger properties down to $999,000. The main living spaces with the concrete floors look kinda cool (as long as you don’t place a premium on natural light) but the upstairs bedrooms aren’t cutting it in the looks department for us. Plus, these houses are only 2,000 square feet, so the new asking price only brings the cost down to $500 per foot.

  1. “isn’t red hook a ton better than clinton hill?”

    I assume this is sarcasm M4L….If not, Fairway is nice of course, and I go there all the time, but otherwise you would have a hard time telling me that Red Hook would be preferable to live in over Clinton Hill. But that comes from a guy with kids. Maybe for a single person its a different equation. Super difficult transit situation over there.

  2. Isn’t this the place where your car has the best spot in the unit? That gorgeous door and sunlight- for your car- made no sense. The layout is awful, no windows. What were they thinking?
