At the moment, it seems that every property that is below $2M is selling like mad. 49 W Brother was on the tour this week, since it is a new listing, and already it’s in contract. It went to multiple offers, and most likely will close over $2M. It is a 2659 SF property (did not feel like that size, but square footage includes everything above grade – and this does have a pool house and 2 car garage). It has small scale rooms, and a cramped, dated kitchen. This house needs everything, but 40’s construction is solid, so good bones and good location rule over renovations…IF it’s a trending location – close to town and amenities….
It is zoned R20 – which would allow for an additional 1450 plus/minus additional expansion (not that the listing indicated that)
Have a house that you want to sell in town? The timing couldn’t be more perfect, and if you have the guts to price it well, you’ve got a shot at a bidding war without any effort to freshen it up.
49 W Brother – List $1,799,000
49 W Brother Living Room
49 W Brother Den
Long Narrow Kitchen – Hopefully they can Bump Out the Back
The art of the deal transcends all businesses, and more so in real estate than in many other professions. For the client, it's often an emotional purchase or sale, rather than a simple commodity or luxury item. I make it my mission to have each side come to terms with a transaction that works for everyone. It's not always easy, but good things in life usually take effort - something from which I've never shied.
Licensed since 2009 as a real estate sales agent in CT & NY, I often work with clients on the border of both areas.
With sales and distribution experience for luxury designer products, and watching/reacting to the markets, my acumen for sales was established. Achieving success and contributing to the growth of many global apparel designer brands, such as Giorgio Armani and Paul Smith for over 20 years, it was time for a change. I wanted to explore another passion that would keep me in one location rather than traveling the globe.
Now I have the best of both worlds, a successful business as a fulfilling personal life. My husband and I have lived in back country Greenwich since 2003, where we enjoy easy access to great biking, hiking and golf. We love to ski and that's usually where our travel takes us.
Life is good in Greenwich!
