Here’s a bidding war that I can understand, sort of

18 Cliffdale Road, priced at $980,000, has sold for $1.230 million. I never saw the house, but looking at its pictures, it’s a pretty interesting place, and I can see why it would attract multiple buyers. For what co-ops and condos are fetching now, life in the country for not a whole lot of money could be appealing.
