…then Builder #2 bought it in 2007 for $1,850,000

He demolished the barn – that had been an income producing property

so cute! bye bye

Pool – gone
Subdivided into 3 parcels, approximately 2 acres each – with the middle property line extending into the existing home’s backyard view
The septic for the home was actually on the middle lot – so a brand new septic has been installed
Builder #2 listed the main home and (2) land parcels, with no bids – last list price for the home was just over $1M. The (2) other lots were listed at approximately $799 each
Builder #2 rents the property for a couple of terms because he cannot sell the property

…foreclosure spring 2010

Bank owns the property
Present renters are paying the bank
Bank sells lot #1 for $499 7/27/10
Bank sells lot #2 (middle) $460 12/23/10

…this was the backyard photographed last summer 2010 – most of the property beyond the stone wall now belongs to the middle property where a home is in the process off being constructed
