Brown (Formerly Pink) House Is On The Market

Paint it brown, and they will come? When a buyer picked up the iconic Peptol Bismol pink Garfield Place townhouse in October for just over $2 million, he painted it brown — and apparently it was all a part of a flip, as the home is back on the market, now for $4,795,000.

Brownstoner wonders about the parts that aren’t currently on display, like the ground floor rental. Even so, we’re pretty impressed by the speed by which the work was done — especially when you see the pics that are shown off at the listing, compared to the befores.

Want to check it out for yourself? Halstead is hosting an open house for 233 Garfield on Sunday, July 14 from 1-4pm.
