The Back Country is the new Bailiwick

50 Burying Hill, which sold for $3.9 million in 2005, is reported as pending, last asking price, $2.650. A charming, 1937 home, but badly in need of updating. If the tax card can be relied on, and often it can't, because our town can be slow in recording mortgage releases, the place is (financially) underwater — taking a 32% hit will do that.
