Brooklyn Real Estate Six Months Later: All Four Sold

This week, for the last time this year, we look back at four of our featured listings from six months ago, focusing on homes in Midwood Park, Crown Heights, Park Slope and Prospect Lefferts Gardens. How did they fare?

First, this circa 1912 standalone Dutch Colonial Revival that possesses a ton of intact original Arts and Crafts features, including unpainted woodwork, an arched brick fireplace (probably red brick originally but now painted), a built-in oak dish cupboard in the kitchen (not pictured), and a vintage sink in a windowed closet in a bedroom. The recently renovated kitchen has new Shaker-style cabinets and a stone countertop with new stainless steel appliances. A back door in the kitchen leads to the backyard, which has a two-tiered patio and a bunch of tall trees. There is parking in the driveway. This former House of the Day sold in September for the asking price of $1.79 million.

Next, a two-bedroom, one-bath co-op is for sale in an eight-unit circa 1900 Neo-Georgian walkup in the Park Slope Historic District. The apartment is on the second floor and features plenty of woodwork, window and door trim and built-ins with egg and dart molding, fluting and classical motifs. This former Co-op of the Day sold in August for $962,000, which was $13,000 above the asking price.

After that, we have a striking turn-of-the-last-century townhouse built by one of Brooklyn’s “lady developers” that has an unusual graphic facade and a sparkling new kitchen and other updates that highlight its original features. Located in the Crown Heights North Historic District II, it belongs to an eclectic row of six that mixes Renaissance Revival and Romanesque details. This former House of the Day sold in August for the asking price of $1.995 million.

And, wrapping up this week, in Prospect Lefferts Gardens, an Axel Hedman-designed single-family limestone townhouse that has rounded window bays and ornamental friezes. The parlor-level woodwork includes a built-in bench below the staircase, mantels, and an ornate dining room with wainscoting and a coffered ceiling. The kitchen is modernized, though not in the most recent fashion. This former Open House Pick sold in September for $2,227,500, which was $72,500 below the asking price.
