What does one do in this room?

It rubs the lotion into its skin or it gets the hose again.

Well I think it’s lovely but also not 4M. (Is a pool really a selling point for most? It is an automatic “no” for me.)

I don’t mind all the basic colors/finishes, but for a 4M I’d expect a bit more actual design elements. One of those boldly colored “cocktail areas” are really picking up steam, etc. I understand some want a blank slate, but a person would have to put some money in this to give it a personality.

As someone currently renovating a property, my guess is that the sellers are trying to recoup their cost. Renovation is expensive, and they definitely look like the did it the “right” way, and probably sunk a lot of money in it. That said, I prefer Ashton Heights to Lyon Village, but I agree this seems overpriced. I would think $3 mill is aspirational but they might find someone to make an offer. Close to 4 seems unrealistic, but whether that is the realtor or the sellers, hard to tell.

That's my thought too - I'm guessing they're not making a pile of money at that asking price.

Ooof. I wouldn't be surprised if the owners lost quite a bit of money at that price.

Bought the lot in March 2018, built high-end custom home, covid happens, move to New England, decide to stay, sell expensive home for $1 million under asking

This house is beautiful - excellent details. It's a bit overpriced for the size but it's very nice.

Maybe for 20% of the households who have kids in Arlington public schools; many do not buy for schools. As Arlington continues to climb from 63% rental households to the projected 70% by 2028, schools will be increasingly irrelevant.

The families who are buying “for the schools” in this neighborhood aren’t looking at anything over 2 mill, typically. (Although the new custom homes are all in the 2-plus to 3 mill range.)

The house sold for 3 million which is pretty good. It’s an attractive home that blends in well with the old classic colonials on the street. It doesn’t overshadow them.

The buyers disagree with you, they were willing to pay it. Real estate values are based on what buyers are willing to pay.
