I'm happy it finally sold and hopefully we'll have a new neighbor to welcome to Cranbury. |
Perhaps the realtor bought it as a spec home to just rent until the market improved or to flip. But in any event, a sale is a sale and the free market rules in the end. |

If that's true it's certainly not good news for comps in the area |

But would you pay over $900,000 for it?
I thinkit looks nice too, but it is substantially over-priced. |

Personally, I don't like paint over brick. Why put artificial stuff over the beauty of nature? |

That said, even most of the houses that truly are right on the lake (on Evans) have sold for less than this. In fact, I don't think any house on the lake has sold this high. A couple might if they sold now, but those are the ones that were gutted or leveled and totally re-done as newer houses. |

I just realized that this is one house away from the lake. I guess the price is a little high. Ignore my previous comment. |

I have never been in, but always wanted to go inside. I love the front door on the home. |

I've never been inside, but I've always admired this house. It is one of the best looking houses on Main St.
(Above poster - yes, there is remnants of white paint over the brick. I think it adds a very nice look to the house) |
