Brooklyn Real Estate Listings Six Months Later: Three Sold, One Still Available

This week, a look back at four of our featured listings from six months ago focuses on homes in Boerum Hill, Bed Stuy, Clinton Hill and Park Slope. How did they fare?

In a late 1980s addition to a 19th century carriage house in Boerum Hill, this two-bedroom, 1.5-bath duplex has an open-plan double-height living area as well as an office and nicely landscaped private backyard. Located at 95 Wyckoff Street, the unit has a modern feel with white walls softened by expanses of wood. The entrance is on the mezzanine level, where an office with window seat overlooks the main living space below. The garden level has an open kitchen with wood accents, living room and dining area with sliding doors leading outside. This former Co-op of the Day sold in August for the asking price of $1.5 million.

There is a fair amount to admire on the interior of this 1890s Bed Stuy row house, although there is still some room for a new owner to put their own stamp on some of the spaces. Within the Bedford Stuyvesant/Expanded Stuyvesant Heights Historic District, 382 Macdonough Street was renovated since it was last on the market in 2012 and includes some modern amenities like solar panels and central air, but plasterwork, seven mantels, moldings and other details were left in place. A legal two-family, the house is set up with a garden-level one-bedroom apartment and an owner’s triplex above. This former House of the Day sold in September for $2.515 million, which was $65,000 over the asking price.

For the right buyer with pockets deep enough for a major restoration, this Clinton Hill Anglo-Italianate has an intriguing level of detail intact despite its rough condition, although another buyer might see it more as a development opportunity. The estate condition row house at 237 St. James Place sits just outside the historic district and is being sold as is for all cash only. There aren’t many photos for the interior of the legal three-family, but those included show mantels, plasterwork, moldings, an original stair with newel post and pocket doors. It’s impossible to assess the structural needs from the photos, but one can anticipate there may be some issues to address. This former House of the Day is still available for $3.25 million, a price increase of $115,000.

A grand brownstone on a prominent block in the Park Slope Historic District dazzles with 1890s finery and its scale. Technically a two-family, the four-story building is set up as a one-family, with triple parlors and, above, two floors of bedrooms. Its eye-catching exterior has arches and rounded bays, and inside there are elaborate cabinet mantels, original tile work, stained glass, fretwork, moldings and a grand stair hall with built-in bench. With updated wet rooms and mechanicals, including central air, the house appears to be in move-in condition. This former Open House Pick sold in September for $5.25 million, which was $250,000 under the asking price.
