Lately we’ve been getting our jollies by playing detective to crack the listing addresses that brokers don’t want consumers to know. Sometimes there are good reasons for not disclosing an address (a particularly private seller, for example) but usually there’s some kind of protectionism or listing-stealing going on. Not sure what the case is with today’s House of the Day, but it took us a good seven or eight minutes using google maps and property shark to determine that this rambling Victorian posted on Craigslist is actually located at 7701 Ridge Boulevard at the corner of 77th Street. Located on a ginormous 75-by-100-foot lot, the 3,500-square-foot house needs TLC but has got plenty of charm. If we had the $1,795,000 to buy this place, we’d start by losing that first-floor brick addition. What do the Bay Ridgies in the crowd think about this price? Feels expensive to us.
