Conyers Farm sale

50 Guards Road has continued its long decline by selling for $4.050 million, three years after being purchased for $4.5 (in 2017 — it had started at $7.995 in 2013). The same property sold for $5.75 in 20000 and $5.2 in 1998.

Although this was the first house built at Conyers and intended as a model for the rest, the style was outdated before it was completed: Conyers Farm buyers wanted far larger, more ostentatious homes, else what was the use of getting rich? So today it’s 10-acres of a beautiful yard and an obsolete structure. Who knows what a building lot up here will be worth in 2022; probably less.
