From the annals of Greenwich's Perma-Inventory

Aaany day now, aaany day

FWIW’s Jaguar and ascot consultant and dead listings spotter brings our attention to 549 North Street, the listing for which expired yesterday, unsold at $7.995 million, but which will doubtless return soon.

There are older listings around town, but this one, dating back to June, 2005, when it was priced at $12.5 million, is certainly in the running for FWIW’s permanent Methuselah Award.

At some point, the stigma attached to an old listing becomes almost impossible to overcome, even for a 13,000 sq.ft. Kaali-Nagy design. And when the house is stashed away on a back lot, things are tougher still.
