New price today, but I still don't think it's a bargain
/11 Mayfair, off Pecksland (and Riversville), has a new agent and a new price: $14.9 million, a considerable drop from its 2016 price of $22 million. A 1930 home designed by Alden Twachtman, who designed a number of houses on Pecksland, and sits on 13 acres, but the Twachtman style is definitely out of favor with today's buyers (I think they're great, but I'm not a buyer).
(Almost) 12,000 sq. ft., it was the weekend retreat for a Goldman Sachs executive, and I suppose he could afford its $100,000 + annual tax bill, but I wonder whether his heirs are as happy as he was to pay those taxes and maintenance costs: judging from this price, I guess they are, but they may grow tired of those bills over the next few years.
