3 Sunday loft open houses $2.3
11:30 – 1
$2.35mm and $1,536/mo
1,800 sq ft with a somewhat peculiar set up as 2 BR + library/den/media room; only 3 pix, with hints that this may need some “freshening up” (or more): an “alternate floor plan” is provided and the floors look a little weathered and there’s only those 3 pix; one challenge is that the space is nearly square, but has windows only on one side; on the market 4 weeks this time but there must be a story here: the owner bought this place only in January (paying $2.1mm), then Corcoran listed it for a day in March at $2.3mm
Ruggles House must be one of the very early loft coop conversions (1973).
12 – 2
$2.3mm and $2,829/mo
2,454 sq ft full-floor new condo conversion just off the Holland Tunnel (south-facing windows are “sound attenuated, of course”); one of those nifty Virtual Doorman systems; no pix on the web, which makes me wonder how much of the “canvass” needs to be “transformed” (as in “This loft is a canvas waiting to be transformed into a residential work of art”)
Interesting that Brown Harris had this listing last June, starting at (drum roll, please) $3.25mm. They dropped it to $2.9mm in October, took it off the market at Christmas until Washington’s (actual) Birthday, when it dropped to $2.35mm. Owner took it off the market for two days and then switched to Halstead at the new price of $2.3mm on April 20. That is about as dramatic a price history as I have seen in a while!
2 – 4
$2.5mm and $1,879/mo
3 BR + office condo that is coy about its size (2,300 sq ft??), in the way west and north (desolate?) part of SoHo; building has low ceilings for a loft and this unit has only 9 windows in it Long-and-Narrow array (are those bars on the inside of the 4th floor windows??); on the market a month
Prices in the “E” line have varied quite a bit. #6E traded at $2.495mm in September (said to have been a “stunning” renovation), while #3E traded at $1.662mm in August (and took almost a year to sell, having started at $2.4mm in September 2005)
