Ka-ching!

The rowhouses Sanba Partners have built across the street from Red Hook’s elementary school are selling for big bucks.

At the King & Sullivan Red Hook Townhomes, as they’re called, the median price for 2017 house sales was $2.63 million, a December report from PropertyShark.com said.

According to city Finance Department records, a sampling of specific transactions includes Murray Butler and Maryanne Butler’s purchase of 84 Sullivan St. for $2,723,818.

Also, Andrew Deitchman and Heather Baltz paid $2,698,362 for 121 King St., Finance Department records show.

The addresses of the development’s 22 rowhouses are 109 to 125 King St. and 72 to 84 Sullivan St.

The King & Sullivan development is across the street from P.S. 15, the Patrick F. Daly Magnet School of the Arts.

The school at 71 Sullivan St. is named after a beloved principal who was caught in the crossfire of a gun battle in 1992 while he was searching the neighborhood for a pupil who had left school in tears. Three teenagers involved in the gun battle were convicted of murdering Daly.

According to Finance Department records, an LLC with Frederic C. Duchac as a member purchased the house for $2.3 million.

* The new owner of 192 Coffey St. plans to convert the two-family rowhouse to a single-family home, Buildings Department records show.

The house belongs to Britton T. Winterer, who purchased it for $2.1 million, Finance Department records show.
