Remember back in February when the famous yellow mansion on South Oxford and Hanson Place (along with a neighboring two-family house and two carriage houses) reportedly sold for $13 million? The preservation-minded breathed a collective sigh of relief when it was revealed that the buyer was not going to tear the house down. Then in June, rumors were swirling that a Scarano tower was going to go on the neighboring sites. Now Douglas Elliman, which had the listing first time around, has everything but the yellow house back on the market for $9 million. So here’s the question: Did it ever really sell last Spring? Property Shark shows no record of a transaction at 154 South Oxford and still has artist Marc Lambrects listed as the legal owner. We wonder if something went awry with that original transaction. Anyone know the real deal?
