Happy Ending for 142 Bergen Street

We hope everyone saw the article in the City section of the Sunday Times updating the story on 142 Bergen Street where, we initially reported, the ceiling caved in at an open house last month. According to the article, the seller ended up receiving multiple bids within an hour of the open house. Initially listed at $1.595 million, the house went to contract last week at $1.68 million. As the buyer points out, plaster caving in doesn’t necessarily mean the house is structurally unsound.
