A couple of new listings, though they're just barely in the starter-home range

There’s 36 Mayfair Lane, built in 1930 and still retaining 5 acres, priced at $9.650 million. The previous owners looked for $12.9 million in ‘05 and ended up settling for these owners’ offer of $8.075 in 2007.

1985 construction; I'm not a fan of inducing ivy to grow between mortared brick, but it does add an oh-so- proper aged look.

And from Sotheby’s moderate-income division comes 150 Zaccheus Mead Lane which will be entertaing offers beginning at $5.3 million. Only a year ago in August the same house was listed for $4.395 million and sold to these fickle owners for $4.8. Will history repeat? We’ll see.
