Just sold for $2.125. A big beautiful home, perfectly livable as it was but could easily be renovated, on the creek, with seawall and dock, 0.5 acres. I tried fruitlessly to interest some of my clients in this property and now it’s too late. An excellent buy.
I can feel the biting midges just looking at the photo…
Nah – no midges on the creek, or not if you’re 10′ above seal level. The buggies stay low.
Don’t forget the stench of low tide and inevitable flooding.
Stan, it’s not Cos Cob, for chrimminey sakes! No stench, no bugs, no flooding.
Saw that house – was indeed nice but no garage (unless you renovate the crab shack thing in the back yard) and needed a ton of work inside. That said – that was back when they wanted $2.7MM or something like that… at $2.125MM if you were looking at houses in the $2.5 – $2.75MM range you have a lot left over to make it nice… so agree – think that’s a great buy for somebody.
Proving that creek-side living paradise is a state-of-mind, if you have such.
