new today: wonderful One Bed Wonder at 458 Broome (bring dollars)?

 
2,300 sq ft + $3.995mm = 1 BR
PH-5 at 458 Broome Street looks like one of the more wonderful One Bed Wonders I have seen in a while (what is a One Bed Wonder?) – and that’s without seeing any pictures or floor plan. Whether it is worth the asking price is impossible to say at this point. It is so new that the Eychner web site does not even have a description yet.
 
But here’s what the inter-firm listing data shows for this listing, new today: 2,300 sq ft of interior space with 17 foot (seventeen!) ceilings and a “heavenly” roof terrace. The floor plan (coming soon? pant, pant…) is “mostly open” with two full baths (and only one bedroom).
 
Property Shark says the building is 25×94 and that the second, third and fourth floors all traded in 2005, at $1.905mm, $1.425mm and $1.651mm, and suggests that the 5th floor owner has been in the building at least since 1993.
 
This asking price is a huge premium for the building that may (or may not be) justified by the higher ceilings, the roof terrace and the condition. My guess is that the condition does not justify a premium, as I don’t see a recent building permit for this unit.
 
More details will be apparent when there are pictures up on the Eychner web site. Provisionally, it is one heck of a One Bed Wonder.
