This property would be perfect for any artist who lives alone: a very cute 1967 house along with one huge barn and another smaller barn, both about a hundred years old.

We just don’t get it. What is the matter with this property that it’s been on the market so long, with so many price cuts, and no one wants it? It was originally listed in November 2013 asking $10.5 million. Now it’s five years later and the ask is $5.25 million, half what it was…

This house was built in 1850 by Libbeus Vincent King (1821-1866), a whaleboat captain. It’s been beautifully update for the 21st century.

North Haven is home to some amazing properties, which come with suitably astonishing price tags. And this property, on tony Bay View Drive, is pretty nice.

The house is circa 1900, but it’s being used as an artist’s studio, so we figured any interesting period details were gone. Then we saw this and fell in…

There are just so many great features, we’re not sure we can list them all. But never backing down from a challenge, we will try.

This listing has got to be at land value now. It’s repped by Simon Harrison of the eponymous brokerage, and he told us, “Privacy isn’t guaranteed with 2.5 acres because sometimes these are “wood lots” or “bowling alley lots.” This one is square.” So plenty of privacy, plus tennis, plus pool. Plus existing house! The…
