Riverside sale price reported

26 Bramble Lane, listed at $4.395 million, has sold for $4,579,018. Bramble is not yiur grandfather;’s street anymore — or mine, for that matter.

This is not the first price war that’s erupted here, but it, like the rest of the town’s real estate, has had an uneven history. Purchased from its builder in 2007 for $3.725 just before the bubble burst, when those owners went to sell it in 2012 they priced it at just $3.395. fortunately for them, Riverside had resumed its upward climb by then, and multiple buyers appeared, including these people, who paid $3,497,420. Still a loss, but a smaller one than feared.

It will be interesting to see what happens to prices in the coming year or two.
