## Property Overview

Serene, Spacious and Sophisticated 1BR Coop!

 Welcome to 277 Washington Avenue Apt. 3A, a large and lovely pre-war 1 BR coop apartment nestled along one of Clinton Hill's most grand and picturesque tree-lined blocks. Located in the Francine Towers, a six-story Romanesque-style elevator building built circa 1905, this generously proportioned and beautifully cared-for apartment is the perfect place to call home.

 Step off the elevator and into your generous entry foyer, where you can drop your packages and tuck your things away in the large coat closet and begin to enjoy your quiet respite from the city just outside. The large foyer currently has an additional double wide storage closet that was incorporated into the space but can easily be reconfigured to accommodate a desk and be used as a work-from-home office space if desired.

 Just ahead is the large living and dining room, with two big windows, high ceilings, original picture rails and original basket-weave patterned hardwood oak floors throughout. This room easily fits a table large enough to host a dinner party for 8, a roomy couch, media console and a lounge chair or two. Pass through the adjacent hallway into the sunny and spacious bedroom, with two west facing windows that look out over the leafy brownstone-lined street below. There is ample room to fit a king-sized bedroom set in addition to a cozy reading nook or additional WFH area and features another large floor-to-ceiling closet as well.

 The roomy kitchen has tons of counter space and both upper and lower cabinetry and features all stainless appliances including a dishwasher, and there's also plenty of room for a friend or two to keep you company while you cook! And at the end of the evening, step into a nice hot bath in your marble-tiled bathroom and unwind from your day.

 Francine Towers is perfectly located in the true heart of Clinton Hill - one block from Pratt Institute and surrounded by countless wonderful neighborhood restaurants, shops, and cultural hotspots, with both Fort Greene Park and Underwood Park right nearby. One block to the G subway and a few minutes to the A and C lines makes commuting a breeze. Pets are welcome, and bicycle storage (small additional fee) and a large common laundry room are on site for all residents. Subletting is allowed after two years of ownership with board approval, and pied-a-terre's, co-purchasing and parents purchasing for adult children will all be considered.

 Don't miss this opportunity to own a special piece of Brooklyn history in one of its most vibrant and beloved neighborhoods.

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable one-bedroom sales at FRANCINE TOWERS is $712,000, based on 12 sales between September 2021 and November 2025. This home is asking $725,000, $13,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $625,000 and $740,000.

- **Median closed price**: $712,000
- **Middle half**: $625,000 – $740,000
- **Based on**: 12 one-bedroom sales at FRANCINE TOWERS
- **Period**: September 2021 – November 2025

Square footage is recorded for only 6 of these 12 sales (50%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest.

Across the 11 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 98% of what it originally asked. 64% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 98% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 64% of 11 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 63 days (about 9 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 82 days (about 12 weeks)

Across the 11 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 98% of what it originally asked. 64% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 63 days (about 9 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 9 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 82 days (about 12 weeks), based on the 9 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 12 one-bedroom sales at FRANCINE TOWERS, September 2021 – November 2025. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median sold price for co-op one-bedroom sales in Clinton Hill, 2017 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth.

| Year | Median sold price | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2017 | $611,500 | 29 |
| 2018 | $640,000 | 23 |
| 2019 | $637,500 | 24 |
| 2020 | $640,000 | 27 |
| 2021 | $630,000 | 36 |
| 2022 | $600,000 | 34 |
| 2023 | $680,000 | 22 |
| 2024 | $655,000 | 18 |
| 2025 | $742,500 | 28 |
| 2026 | $652,500 | 10 |

This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Clinton Hill instead.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
