Brooklyn Real Estate Listings Six Months Later: Two Sold, Two in Contract

This week, a look back at four of our featured listings from six months ago focuses on homes in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn Heights and Park Slope. How did they fare?

With a layout that includes a sleeping alcove, dressing area, and a foyer large enough for dining, this Prospect Heights co-op offers a generous amount of space for a studio. It is on the first floor of 230 Park Place in the Prospect Heights Historic District. The sunken living room in this unit has wood floors and a partial wall topped with display niches to separate a sleeping alcove. The wall stops short of the two exposures, allowing light and air into both spaces. This former Co-op of the Day entered contract in September.

This one-bedroom on Orange Street in Brooklyn Heights still has its original spacious layout with a sunken living room, dining nook and a foyer that could serve as a work-from-home perch. It’s on the third floor of a 1937 Colonial Revival brick elevator building designed by architects Seelig & Finklestein. Original details in the apartment include iron railings, wood floors, arched openings, and picture rails. This former Co-op of the Day sold in December for $905,000, which was $30,000 over the asking price.

Capacious family-size prewar apartments are elusive in Brooklyn; here’s one in Park Slope with two full bathrooms as well as seven rooms, including a dining room and four bedrooms. It has windows on three exposures and a fair amount of classical detail such as moldings and parquet as well as modern updates. The second-floor apartment opens into a substantial foyer with a pier mirror with a built-in seat and space for two wardrobes. The living room has a curving bay with three windows facing Prospect Park. This former Co-op of the Day sold in November for $2.151 million, which was $201,000 over the asking price.

In the Prospect Heights Historic District, this 1890s row house has some fine period details like a pier mirror, interior shutters, mantels, and built-ins along with room for a new owner to make some modern upgrades. Currently used by the longtime owners as a single-family according to the listing, the floor plan shows it set up as a triplex with a second kitchen on the top floor. This former House of the Day entered contract in September.
