A cozy weekend cabin for practically peanuts — gourmet peanuts, to be sure, but …
/0 Rich Island, Byram, hit the market Friday at $7.495 million. Nifty place, although anyone who has ever had a weekend retreat on an island will tell you that it can be an inconvenient way of living.
It might seem to be low to the water, for some, especially considering that our best scientific minds tell us that sea level will have risen 50’ by 2030, but the house has stood up to storms and floods since 1900, and the current owners have been using it since 1980, so intrepid buyers can probably relax.
Besides, the type of buyer who is terrified at the prospect of ice floe-surfing polar bears invading his property cant’t even hang a picture, let alone operate a skiff, and would probably get lost trying to reach this place from shore without a hired guide — he’s not the market here.
