This Weekend’s Open House Picks
We’ve rounded up some of the more interesting open houses happening in and around Ditmas Park this Sunday. Any thoughts on these places?
CONDOS & CO-OPS
855 E 7th Street #3C
List Price: $165,000, plus $459 maintenance
Size: One bedroom, one bathroom
Details: This 700 sq ft unit has lovely wood floors, a recently renovated bathroom, an eastern view and sunshine, and a kitchen that might be eat-in if you moved those shelves. The doorman building has laundry facilities laundry and allows cats, is about equidistant from the Avenue H stop on the Q and the 18th Avenue stop on the F, and the only utility not included in maintenance is electric.
Open House: Sunday, March 23 from 12-2pm
1818 Newkirk Avenue #3G
List Price: $415,000, $676 maintenance
Size: Two bedrooms, one bathroom
Details: This airy place is nearly 1,100 sq ft with lots of light, great French doors, an updated kitchen, and ample closet space. The building near Newkirk transportation and amenities features communal outdoor space, a laundry room, a parking garage, bike storage, and a part-time doorman, too–and since it looks from the listing to have been on the market a while, this might be the time to haggle.
Open House: Sunday, March 23 from 11am-1pm
HOUSES
34 Wellington Court
List Price: $999,000
Size: Five bedrooms, one bathroom
Details: This beauty near Avenue H has definitely seen better days, but we’d love to find out what an experienced fixer-upper(er) could do to make the best of that inlaid flooring, stained glass, moulding, and more. We’re wondering if the price is a little steep (especially considering proximity to the subway tracks), but if it seems right for you, this could be a great opportunity to personalize a place in the neighborhood.
Open House: Sunday, March 23, 1-2pm
112 Marlborough Road
List Price: $2,400,000
Size: Five bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms
Details: Just like the Swiss chalet around the corner, this beauty was designed by architect John J. Petit–and just like the chalet (whose listing has been removed), it’s hoping to break some sale records. Also something we can say about both the places is they’re magnificent–we just question paying over $2M before kitchen renovations even start. If you can look past that, though, you’ll be rewarded with two working fireplaces, arched entryways with column details, stained glass, and more.
Open House: Sunday, March 23, 1-3pm
