If this keeps up we're going to have to import more old elephants to stock the graveyard

You won’t have Ol’ Stan to kick around anymore

398 Stanwich Road, currently priced at $3.495 million and the subject of many, many posts here over the years, has a contract. Sold as new construction in 2004 for $5.5 million, it sold again in 2010 for $5.350. That buyer, this owner, placed it back up for sale in 2012 (I believe his business took him abroad) for $5.695 million and, many price cuts and a couple of rental periods later, it’s found a buyer.

It’s not a bad house, assuming you want big, and don’t mind a Colonial-era graveyard in the side lawn, and at, say, $3.2 or so, it’s a pretty good buy.
