House of the Day: 226 Baltic Street
Loving this house at 226 Baltic Street, which the new listing describes as a “unique 1854 Anglo-Italianate townhouse…flanked by two beautiful sister houses creating a stunning architectural triptych.” The one-family house, which sports a gorgeous center stair, has beaucoup historic details and has been very tastefully renovated.

Loving this house at 226 Baltic Street, which the new listing describes as a “unique 1854 Anglo-Italianate townhouse…flanked by two beautiful sister houses creating a stunning architectural triptych.” The one-family house, which sports a gorgeous center stair, has beaucoup historic details and has been very tastefully renovated. Despite the house being on the narrow side, we don’t think the asking price of $2,600,000 will scare anyone away.

“beaucoup historic details”
Come again? You must be looking at a different house.
deep pockets like 1 family houses and this location is killer (better than the clinton one) so I think it’ll get bought at around 2.5
m4l:
371 Clinton is 16.5 x 50 x 4 floors, 3,400sf and set up as a 2-family. Great location, great school zone, renovated. Garden rental takes about $2,000 off the monthly nut. Property taxes about $4,200.
226 baltic only has 3 floors, 2,820sf, zoned as 1-family, so no rental. Great location, also zoned for PS 29. Property taxes about $6,200.
A similar valuation psf would put 226 Baltic at $2.24M.
daveinbedstuy, they don’t?
STARGAZER, people who spend this amount of money don’t watch TV. And they surely don’t snack on Cheese puffs on the sofa. 🙂
how does this stack up with that skinny clinton st house that sold at a big ASK recently?
not loving the layout either, a bedroom near the front door next to the living room…
I like the kitchen living on the same level next to each other, because that is where most of the living takes place….who wants to go from the kitchen down to the living room up, and then back down again….I need a lot of snacks during TV time….and up and down in not happening
The location is great, the house is very pretty and well-renovated. Some of the choices are a bit odd, but I’m sure they served the current owners. Maybe they had a lot of children and wanted a live-in nanny? Or one of them works from home and the in-laws visit a lot? They clearly got as many usable rooms as possible in a fairly narrow house. I’m sure the eventual buyer will value those choices.
The price is pretty high for a 17-footer. On the other hand, Bococa seems very hot, so I understand starting high, just in case.
“Don’t people who spend all this money on kitchens ever cook? You need to chop the food, and butcher block looks amazing….”
Meh. You put down a chopping board, you’re fine. Butcher block can look nice, but not as nice as that stone does.
You’re probably right about them not cooking that much, though. No serious cook would have an open stove with no hood for ventilation—you wind up smelling up the house with whatever’s cooking, and over time, depositing grease and gunk onto the walls and ceilings.
