I suppose twelve years on the market is enough for any house

808 North Street, currently priced at $6.5 million, has a deal pending. I’m only guessing, but I don’t see it closing at a number that doesn’t begin with a six.

The owners bought it (from Stanley Cheslock, who has his own problems up on Taconic) for $11.3 million in 2005, and have been trying to sell the place since 2008, when they started at $12.490.
