This house at 293 Prospect Place in Prospect Heights has been on the rental market in various forms for awhile, and a garden apartment went for $1,700 back in 2006. A couple of weeks ago a duplex in the building hit the market asking $4,500 before getting a quick price reduction to $4,250. The three-bedroom looks pretty nice for a rental, with lots of original details intact and brand-spankin’ new kitchen. Also, two bathrooms and a washer-dryer unit are nice. Think this will fetch its price?

$2,500 would barely get you a really nice 1 bedroom in Park Slope.
No outdoor space, no central air, not in a good school zone. $3,500 sounds about right.
$4250 seems a bit high, yes. but there’s no way a nicely renovated, real 3br 2ba duplex plus in-unit w/d goes for $2500 in park slope! and certainly not in any of the school zones that are materially better than this one…
Thanks, Maly, I’ll fix it.
Sounds high for Prospect Heights? Wouldn’t this rent for $2,500 or $3,500 in Park Slope?
Though I guess it’s a hair better value than $18,000.
They did a pretty good job on the renovation for a rental and it’s got pretty good amenities.
Also, Emily, the $1,700 was for the garden rental. The owners tried to sell the house (triplex over garden rental) for 2 years, and failing that, reconfigured the house. This rental is for an upper duplex, no outdoor space. There may be another duplex (garden + parlor floor) or 2 other rentals, not sure.
So it’s no fair to compare.
I agree. The price would only work in a great public school zone. It’s about $1,000 overpriced.
I can see 3K, but 4250 is too much. It doesn’t even mention anything about access to the yard.
