Pending on Pinecroft

14 Pinecroft Road, guide price $5.450 million. Started at $5.795 million February 24th, but listing agent Martha Jeffrey is one of the best, and quickly dropped it to its current price on March 3rd. We can all overestimate an initial price (or, more often, an owner can), but no harm’s done if, as here, that price is adjusted promptly.

Great house and grounds, and the location’s good. I’d remove the faux ceiling beams in the living room and maybe the library’s dark paneling, but those are quibbles.
