House of the Day: 331 Washington Avenue
This is the kind of estate condition listing we love: It’s got grand proportions (despite being less than 18 feet wide), Neo Grec details such as incised marble fireplaces, what seems to be a largely untouched floor plan, and even a few of the original built ins and sinks in the passthroughs, according to the…
This is the kind of estate condition listing we love: It’s got grand proportions (despite being less than 18 feet wide), Neo Grec details such as incised marble fireplaces, what seems to be a largely untouched floor plan, and even a few of the original built ins and sinks in the passthroughs, according to the listing. No kitchens or baths are shown, and we couldn’t check any HPD history because the site is down.
The brownstone at 331 Washington Avenue traded hands earlier this month from one LLC to another for $1,900,000. It looks like a lovely place, but the new ask is $2,995,000. Last we checked, that was top of the line for a Clinton Hill row house. Are fixer-uppers really going for that much now?

This is crazy and not fair. This new owner has done zero work on this house and as everyone has rightly noted it is narrow and needs tons of work. It needs everything from electric, plumbing, to bathrooms, kitchen and even the staircase needs a lot of love. The neighborhood is great and the block lovely but honestly what this “developer” bought this house for is the fair market value and he shouldn’t profit over a million dollars for painting a little. It’s absurd.
Over 50% of houses that sell in Brooklyn needs new plumbing and electrical updating. This house has good bones and will find a new Home owner that will turn these Jem into a piece of art.
So the house is located across the park and has unbelievable original details. Plus the extension has amazing charm. This is a must see for anyone who is looking to buy. 17.76 is narrow 80 feet deep and high ceilings make up for it. Can’t wait for the Open house
nice details remain, but way too narrow to command that price tag.
The house is actually 16.3′ wide. Still much wider than other Clinton Hill houses.
didn’t a narrow fixer go for 3mm on Cambridge/Greene earlier this year?
