This townhouse on Dean Street checks off many boxes a Brooklyn brownstone buyer would have on their list: prime location (between Boerum Hill and Park Slope), already converted into a one-family, and plenty of old-school appeal.
Clearly none of these sellers have heard of staging, or the phrase, "putting your best foot forward."
This week's batch of questionable photos comes, as always, courtesy of Andy Donaldson, the man behind the Terrible Real Estate Agent Photographs blog and book, complete with Donaldson's funny commentary.
Studios and one-bedrooms tend toward the utilitarian, sacrificing style—among many other features—for efficiency. But not this Brooklyn Heights apartment. Listed by Compass and asking $1.35 million, its living room has double-height ceilings—up to 18 feet high in some parts—and a large window atop sliding doors that lure in the light.
Subway flashers, pervy catcallers, the one roommate you have who never seems to leave his room—NYC doesn't want for creepy setups we'd rather do without.
But when it comes to townhouses and apartment buildings dressed to fright, yes please! We posted one house yesterday on the Upper East Side on Instagram—follow us!—that looked to have a distressingly emaciated "resident" fleeing through the window:
1. This updated Victorian has river views, a walkable downtown and a quick commute to the city
2. 6 charming NYC houses that won't cost you a fortune
3. How is a carriage house different than a regular townhouse?
