As I was just saying about Riverside ...

22 Indian Head.jpg

22 Indian Head Road (March contract) has sold for $2.350 million. The owners paid $2.1 for it in 2017, put it back up for sale in July, 2018 at $2.399 and never budged from that price. Amazing.

While this house looks typical enough from the front, someone made a terribly misguided attempt at expanding it back in 2007, put it back on the market at $3.399 and met the appropriate market response, which eventually ended up at that 2017 sale at $2.1.

There is nothing to like about this floor plan; the re-do makes no sense, there’s no clear way to get from room-to-room, and, all in all, it’s just a mess. Not the house itself, mind you, which is perfectly nice, and will surely prove to be a pleasant home — it backs up to St. Paul’s mausoleum, for instance, so quiet neighbors are guaranteed except on October 31st — but the design is just clumsy and ill-thought-out.

But it’s sold, so there’s that.
