Someone really, really wanted this house.
/I wouldn’t have been one of them, but that’s just personal taste. In any event, 22 Delwood Lane, that little dead-end that climbs uphill from Old Church Road, was listed at $2.995 million in April, went into a bidding war, and closed Friday for $4,010,000. It was a relocation company sale, which used to offer an advantage to buyers, because the owners, guaranteed a set price from the re-lo company, were usually content with offers just a bit above that. No need for that here, in this market.
And I’d have loved to have been the listing agent for this one, wooden shoe? Everyone’s favorite Dutch agent (okay, maybe the only agent in Greenwich hailing from the Netherlands, but still our favorite), Daphne Lamsvelt-Pol, represented the owners back in 2016, when she sold it to her own client for $2.250 million (I leave it to the readers’ mathematical skills to calculate a 2.5% commission, doubled), and those buyers were so happy with her representation that they hired her themselves when they went to sell it this time. Obviously, they chose well, but Daphne may be sorry to see this annuity leave: Rob Johnson represented the buyers in this round.
