Now I don't usually attend open houses in Carroll Gardens, but when I read last week that there would be an open house at the "hunchback" building at 45 3rd Place, I just had to go and check it out. The two duplexes in this condo conversion are on the market for the stiff price of $1,595,000 for the lower apartment and $1,555,000 for the upper unit.
Good luck getting that! Let me just say that I was amazed. Broken window, wet rags in the basement, cheap heating units barely screwed to the wall....you get the picture.
No wonder these condos have been on the market for months.
You just have to wonder why the realtor Brown Harris Stevens is hanging in there.
And most importantly, why are they showing the place looking the way it does with all the very obvious flaws?
