Buckling down for winter
/A number of large houses failed to sell this fall, so they took price cuts last week. Can’t hurt, I suppose.
373 Taconic Road
373 Taconic Road has dropped to $4.995 million. The owners paid $9.350 million for it in 2005, and have been trying to undo that purchase since March 2016, when they put it on the market at $9.750.
16 Boulder Brook Road
16 Boulder Brook, now an asset [sic] of People’s Bank, was marked down to $3.999. Last sold, and borrowed against, for $5.832, in 2007, when all the world was young. Or this house was, anyway.
170 Old Mill
At least the owners of 170 Old Mill Road, who have taken their price down a notch from $5.495 million to $4.495 million, have not (yet) suffered the indignity of the original owner of this house, who paid $8.850 for it in 2006 and was finally able to unload it on these sellers for $4.9 million in 2015. Heck, they’ve only just begun.
UPDATE: Publius sends along an NR article about Regis leaving Greenwich. The author gets one detail wrong: Philbin hasn’t yet sold his house, he’s only hoping to, but otherwise, the piece is spot on.
