I was wondering about that kitchen. I wonder if you could install more counter space or is there just no place to put them? It would be a shame to live 1 block from Whole Foods and not be able to cook.

Fair price. Nice place, great location. Prob good for a single person who plans on eating out every night. Kitchen looks unusable (other than microwaving pizza or frying eggs). Wall units suck.

Saw it at the Open House. It is teeny TINY, but really adorable. The layout is practical if you are fairly minimalist. A nice alternative to a studio. The location is killer though. Nice street close to everything. I wish I had my act together to pull the trigger on this one.

I went to see it today, and I’d say 300sqft is a generous estimate of the size. Now, it’s VERY well laid out for 300sqft, but there is no laundry and it’s tiny – so I’d say it’s about $40k overpriced. Just not worth it – it’s barely big enough to put an SUV in if it was a garage – so don’t plan to bring any of your stuff!

And in the 1930′s there were bootleggers – and in the 40′s – hootchie coochie girls. A crazy cat lady lived there around 1951, and I saw this guy who lived there in 1963 reading “Howl” on the front steps. . . .

Great investment. Mortgage would probably be less than renting elsewhere, plus you’re building equity. I have a similarly open closet (I call it a “walk-through”) and it works really well.

Yeah I agree, this def looks a lot smaller than my 600 sq ft apartment. Still cute though.
