Below is what this 4+1 bedroom, 6 bathroom 5,800 square foot house on a 50 x 130 foot lot used to look like.

It's not necessarily a tear down from the outside but I am not loving that sloped roof.

It is exactly what the house at 201 Vesta down the street will look like in a year.

I am not a big fan of the huge walk up to the front door.  Couldn't the basement have been dug down just a little more?

It is similar to the house at 190 Forest Hill that was listed initially at $6,495,000 and was ultimately dropped to $5,680,000.  I am not sure how much it sold for though.

(thanks to Michael McLaughlin, the designer of the house at 15 Oakley who told me that those dancing people prints that are everywhere are by Robert Longo).

This house has been on the market since July and is listed at $4,485,000.

I think it is still overpriced but I think most houses in Forest Hill are overpriced.

  Seriously, sliding doors for $4.5 million!?!

I'm thinking high 3s.  Very low 4s at the most.
