12 Byfield Lane is Back on Market -$7,499,000

12 Byfield Lane began it’s listing journey in 2009, priced at $12M – oh excuse me – $11,999,999…then, finally expired in November 2013 at $9,999,999. The odd looking pricing strategy obviously didn’t do the trick for attracting a buyer. It’s funny – in the apparel business, prices ending with 9’s are usually reserved for downmarket products. $49,99 rather than $50.00 You will never see the .99 strategy at stores like Bergdorf’s or Neiman’s. Kohl’s – yes. Perhaps subliminally, buyers for real estate sense the same signal. 

Anyway, regardless of pricing, is back on the market for $7,499,000. 

What you’ll get, is lots of arches, balustrades, spindles….end less I forget, a washer/dryer hookup!

The listing boasts a “sumptuous master suite”, but damned if I could find a photo on either the expired listing or the new one…lots of marginal and redundant photography.
What you won’t get is a pool, court, wine cellar,out buildings or theater….but what would one expect for $7.5, I mean $7,499,000?

37 Richmond Hill Rd – $3,600,000 Same Price that Sellers Paid in 2000

It’s been rented for the last couple of years for $17,500 and $18,500 respectively…and now it’s trying again at the same price that the sellers paid in 2000.

Not  bad house – some of the better features are en-suite bedrooms, a large master with great closets, a theater, pool – large flat yard….but not close to town like what buyers are looking for. This house in Riverside would most likely fetch at $1M more, but then there are not many lots in Riverside that would allow for  10,000SF house.

Some of the cons, in my opinion, are the kitchen – they claim that it’s a gourmet kitchen, but not my idea of what that would be…the crap that is on top of the maple cabinets only draw attention to the fact that they don’t meet the ceiling, and I cannot see what kind of appliance are in place, but what I also don’t see is a substantial vent over the stove.

ALso not my favorite “feature” in a house, is when the stone is only applied to the front of the house. If you can’t do it, odn;t do it at all…
