Research your pricing formulae a little better, “fd”. The Lincoln Road house is not absurdly priced, so much as it is absurdly marketed. Could use a more professional presentation. The house across the street sold for $1.15M last year. Meanwhile, there are several two-floor properties on Maple Street that have recently sold for over $925K and $930K recently. And the several 3 floor properties on Midwood Street have sold for more than $1.3M.
I think the PLG house is absurdly priced. The wood is painted brown — it really needs a lot of work to get it up to snuff.
In pricing it, I think they thought “well the one on Maple just sold for $950K, and it was only 2 floors.” But the one on Maple had a gorgeous renovation, very well presented and marketed. And was overpriced, I might add. I think the sellers lucked out with that one — it just takes one buyer, as they say.
How about 209 Maple, has that sold? They were also asking too much, for a not great renovation.
I’m pretty sure it is a stuffed ostrich, not a live one.
1) I like the ostrich.
2) As I mentioned in another thread, my dream back yard would have a lap pool, a hot tub and a tiki bar, so I got all excited when I saw that back yard, and bummed when it was just a splash pool, not a hot tub. But digging the tiki vibe to the yard.
This house is the best of a mediocre bunch. I’m with the previous posters, what is with all that crap in the photos? Have some pride and tidy up for the photos.
What’s wrong with slanting floors? I LOVE my slanting floors! They frustrate my son when he is trying to play with his cars, but other than that they’re great.
I agree that this is an unappealing bunch of highly overpriced c**p, but thanks Brownstoner for trying to include some more “moderate” homes again.
If the broker didn’t include the ostrich, it would be more shocking to many people come to open house. How on the earth they can hide that huge animal? Closet? So everybody knows the ostrich will be waiting!
You guys know that the ostrich is going. The dress hanging in front of the closet too- as well as the shopping bags in front of the fireplace ( ok so that was two listing described in one). But no one has commented on the things that are staying…
The ostrich is actually offensive to me. I don’t want to see dead animals when I walk into a house. Who is the broker anyway? The website link isn’t working on my mac. He doesn’t co-broke, I see.
I think we should make “ass of Mc Donald’s” a new real estate term.
Ostrich = broker; both are unapologetic, head-in-the-sand, unyielding
These are really sad listings, Mr. B …
