The first sale in 2011 in Greenwich, CT goes to 21 Martin Dale North. The Greenwich MLS has reported a couple other transactions, but those actually took place in Dec 2010.21 Martin Dale North is a niced sized house (3,370 sf, 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and one half-bath) located in central Greenwich.

It says something about a house and neighborhood when a home hasn't traded for over 50 years. I'm a big fan of buying homes that have been owned for ages. Why would a family stay somewhere they didn't like? Why would a family stay in a building that had problems - or how could they afford to do so.This was a great buy. Yes, the house [...]

After an original listing of $2.55m in 2008, 11 Maher traded for $1.625m today. With nearly 3,000 sq.ft of space on one of my favorite streets I believe that this was a good buy.

The design might be a little controversial, but you get a full 4 bedrooms, two full bathrooms, over 2,000 sqft of space and are now living in [...]
It took a million dollar price adjustment and a year and a half of hard work, but 128 Butternut Hollow finally sold today. The house sold for $2.6m, which is well bellow the assessment and $1.325m under the original asking price.
We had 5 houses in Greenwich trade today. I'm not sure if this means much, other than people wanting to close before Christmas week. We have seen a decent amount of closing activity, but not much "to contract" activity.
There are some great deals out there. 174 Putnam Park is one of them. This co-op in Putnam Park was originally listed for $530k two years ago and today finally sold for $345k. With 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, this was a great opportunity to get into Greenwich.
