  1. Maybe there was just a typo in the Times, and the recent house sold was actually 375A. I agree that the house in the ad linked by 8:07 is NOT the middle house in the photo above. But the house in the ad is the same realtor and the price is the same, so maybe it’s just the newspaper’s error.

  2. Ok, the photo in the original post is correct. 375 12th is the blue house (it is now white, but still vinyl sided). The house in the ad linked by anonymous 8:07 is 375A which also sold a while back. 375 is the one without the cornice (I went by today while running errands).

  3. It’s true that the South Slope is not as uniformly beautiful as some of the brownstone streets of Park Slope, but it is charming in its own way and is a great neighborhood to live in: safe, good schools, close to Prospect Park, close to stores and restaurants on 5th and 7th Aves. Not everyone can afford a $2 million brownstone.

  4. Hey Anon 3:22. I live in the neighborhood and see the back of the 12th Street House. More than half of the decks on the block are ‘illegal’ and to say the entire house is pitched to one side is incorrect. Also, I looked at the house and the stairs WERE attached. Maybe you were thinking of a different house?

  5. the link to the 12 st. house is from last year – it took forever to sell. we bid on it and then retracted when we took a closer look (the whole house pitched to one side, the stairs from the downstairs unit were no longer attached so if you wanted to make it a one family you were outta luck and the deck was not legal). this photo is for the house next door – just like anon 12:28 says.

  6. from 9:37am — oh, so the house that sold is the one on the right in the photo. I just assumed it was the middle house, that the photo focuses on. Is it just me, or is that photo misleading, then?
