Perennial quick seller on Hillside Road

55 Hillside Road, asking $3.695 million, is already pending after just 40 days on the market. It sold (for $3.476) in 8 days in 2015, and 23 days in 2012, so clearly this house and location has great appeal. 

There's no arguing the merits of the 1.5 acre lot, set far enough back from Hillside to avoid the worst of high school traffic, but I'm struck by how out of date my tastes are: to me, all of the charm of this 1937 house was stripped long ago, especially during these sellers' brief ownership, but I'm obviously out of touch with today's generation of buyers.

I'll have to keep that in mind.
