Reader Andrew alerts me that this nine-acre parcel off Round Hill sold today for $5 million (it’s been under contract for awhile). That’s an interesting price – about half what was first asked for it but still a lot of money. It is, however, one of the most beautiful building sites in Greenwich, with rolling meadows and a high vista, so I can understand why someone would pay so much. Technically, it can be subdivided into two lots but I think that would produce two inferior lots instead of one great one.

Interesting how much cheaper it traded for than the premium land in ~250 RHR
Didn’t that desirable RHR dirt trade in ’08 at some $1MM/acre? And no apparent bulk rate discount as IIRC that GS partner bought ~17acres on RHR
This was bought by a neighbor, B. Holt Thrasher, an IT guy (Mooreland Partners) and on the board of the National Audubon Society – my guess is he wanted to keep it undeveloped and paid to do that, and no more.
