Current owner dropped some serious coin on this, so its a little differnt than claiming that its appreciated that much
This is a really cool place, and is really bordering on a steal
“This is a really cool place, and is really bordering on a steal”
I agree. This is like $2.5M in a ho-hum area of Brooklyn.
Shows well. Wonder if it is over improved for building.
I was scratching my head as I would not consider a condo every again…until I saw this. I do think this is a really nice unit and love that the master is on the second floor and that there is separate roof deck access for guests…
“appliances by … Lieber”
How does the realtor know the appliances are “state of the art” if they don’t even know who makes them?
“Current owner dropped some serious coin on this”
It was a gut, so it has to be even more than you think, JU.
And that’s before you consider that Oct-13 @ $559 + CPI = $730.
“Wonder if it is over improved for building.”
This one recently sold for $600k. Or just over $400 psf:
https://www.redfin.com/IL/Chicago/560-W-Fulton-St-60661/unit-308/home/12752257
At the same ppsf, this place would be $779k–even the most roofdeck skeptical person would agree that this roof deck is easily worth $20k.
And that’s completely ignoring that the featured unit is waaaaaay nicer that 308.
“I do think this is a really nice unit and love that the master is on the second floor and that there is separate roof deck access for guests…”
Me too The Cat. This feels very pleasant with the primary on its own separate floor. Also top floor, so no one walking above you.
It’s kind of shocking that #308 sold for $600,000. Nothing was updated in that unit. Original kitchen and baths. Wow.
It also sold for actual list price. This area is red hot.
Curtains in the living/family room/kitchen area make a BIG difference. More people should install curtains. Adds a lot of elegance for not a lot of money.
Bravo to the designers architects and homeowner went on a job well done! I read the comments first and had to look at the photos. Couldn’t agree more. Stands out and stands up to that valuation.
It’s going by to get that price! Not sure I’d want to be in that exact area of Fulton but someone will be happy there.
