As proof that Gideon keeps mum about his business dealings, I had no idea that he was bringing this house on

For that matter, after all my years in town, I had no idea that this back lot at 257 Sound Beach Avenue even existed. $1.2 million.

Built in 1899, it still retains its charm, although the neighborhood’s been developed a bit since then. We’ll let Gideon describe it:

First time on the market in 100+ years. Property is LBR-zone (local business retail) so multiple development options for next owner. Existing house has high ceilings and large rooms, very much suitable for renovation/updating. Two separate garage buildings, front access to Sound Beach Ave and rear access to ''CVS parking lot''. In the heart of the village, literally seconds from OG School, stores, restaurants, train.
