Well, we won't have this house to kick around anymore — for a while, anyway

After starting off at $11.475 million in 2022, 230 Taconic Road has finally sold, but for just $6.890. I’ve never quite understood why this house, designed by the late Rick Moisan (a really gifted architect and genuinely nice guy who tragically died of cancer at 43) and constructed by Hobbs has had such a hard time selling, but it has. Built in 2005 and priced at $10.5 million, it sold to these now-former owners in 2006 for $8.750. They in turn tried for $9.450 in 2019, pulled it after six months, spruced it up, and put it back on the market in 2022 at the aforesaid $11.475.

Ouch.
