For $12 million bucks, I want an address other than 12 Byfield Lane (how come builders keep confusing the street address with the price?) and, not for nothing, a better picture than the cheap digital snapshot posted here. I’m sure tis a grand house but at an asking price of over $1,000 per square foot, I think I can afford to wait to see this – I don’t think it will be going anywhere soon.
And although I am aware that another house actually sold for $2 million on Circle Drive earlier this year, I’m not sure that amazing feat can be duplicated, so I’ll pass up the opportunity to see 13 Circle again. It didn’t sell for $2.430 in 2007 and its new price of $2.150 doesn’t impress me. A new house at 45 Circle Drive couldn’t fetch $1.7 million and has now dropped to $1.45. Fairness suggests that I visit both and compare, but whoever said I was fair?


How many houses are for sale on Byfield and are they all the same builder?
Don’t forget to skip 423 Stanwich too.
I lived in 11 Byfield Lane as a teenager (my parents sold in the mid-1990s after returning to live in Ireland) and I’m glad I didn’t have to look at that monstrosity on my way to school in the morning, or listen to my mother’s opinion about it on returning home in the afternoon.
