Hi.

Welcome to the MASH where we gossip about current real estate listings.

Enjoy!

UPDATE - 193 Beatrice Street - BICKFORD PARK (click photo to see full post)

This is a detached house just north of College on a nice one way street.

It isn't sitting for long.

It is a 4 bedroom*, 2 bathroom house with a finished basement and a 1 car garage on a 16.75 x 120 foot lot with a great deck and grass.

I don't love the front door and the windows seem a little tired.  The kitchen is fine but could be updated if it isn't your thing.  The floors on the second floor are charming I suppose but are old.   

And that wallpaper in the bathroom in the basement!!!!  Don't go in there after too many drinks.....

But the basement is finished with a fireplace and according to the listing...

Lots Of Dancing Room

Which if dancing and playing your LPs really loud are your thing like it seems is the thing of the current owners, being detached is a REALLY good thing.

But why are there no pictures of the third floor master?  Is it because it isn't a full floor with the slopped roof and there is no bathroom? 

Maybe the floors are in rough shape...

No sure but even without the third floor and the bits of work that will be needed sooner or later, this house is amazing even if it isn't huge

It is listed at $999,000.

It is not sitting for long and it is going over asking for sure.

It could use some work (and another bathroom), but a detached house like this doesn't come up very often.

I think this house is going to go closer to $1,115,000....maybe $1,125,000.

It really needs a different front door though.

UPDATE: thanks to the reader who pointed out that this listing says there are only 3 bedrooms.  I have no idea where I got the 4 bedroom thing from but I swear, this morning, it said 4 bedrooms.  

Or maybe the effects of the house warming party I was at on Saturday are still lingering....it's possible.

Now that I'm looking at this as a 3 bedroom.....I don't think this could go as high as $1,125,000.  Or even $1,115,000.

Maybe $1,065,000.... or $1,079,000.

But not over $1,100,000.

And I agree with the commentor below, that chicken painting is pretty awesome.  Thanks to the person who sent in a link to the artist!
