Did anyone else notice this Victorian gem in the Residential Sales feature of The Times yesterday? What particularly grabbed our attention was that the house sold for $20,000 over the asking price in one week. When we tracked down the listing for the 95-year-old house on Mary Kay Gallagher’s site (which, by the way, is one of the few brokerage site’s that gives the public full transparency on recent sales), we learned that in fact it had sold in one day! Of course $1,020,000 is peanuts compared to the $2.2 million asking price for the house Mary Kay was showing yesterday (see Friday’s Open House Picks)…Did anyone make it by the open house? We were busy at our own place, measuring doorways and figuring out where to run speaker wire.
