Still hanging around on Rogues' Hill

449 Round Hill, north of the Merritt and near the church, is back on the market today, relabled (per tax card) as a 1950 house instead of its previous description as 1990, is now priced at $6.650 million, a bump up from the last price it failed to sell for, $6.450. The house has been with us for a while: it started at $7.950 in 2011, quit, temporarily, in 2012, and then reappeared in 2014 at $8.250 in 2014, dropping slowly in price earlier this year to the aforementioned $6.450 million.

Nice house, good land, but a bit far north for today’s market, which would explain the market’s rejection of its charms over the past seven years.

Raising the price of a house that refuses to sell has always struck me as a rather bone-headed move.
