[quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's a wreck.  There will be a buyer who will appreciate it and for whom it would be in move-in condition.  I think they may need to stage it in a clever way to reflect its style and make it shine to attract that buyer if it doesn't sell quickly.  It's hard to imagine this space coming to life when most type of decor and staging we see is contemporary and doesn't go with this style of a home.

My main concern would be lack of useful outdoor space.  The sad patio on the bottom isn't it.  At this price point seller is competing with older but more recently built mcMansions that have decks and screened porches.   I would not pay 3 mil for a house where I cannot take my meal outside or get some sun without going to the basement first, which means I need a deck at the level of the kitchen/dining area.

I'd have to rip out the weird "balcony" that reminds me of old homes or apartments, and replace it with a nice deck and a screened porch.  Someone must love this house a lot to have to pay for it in addition to this price, or simply not care about outdoor spaces. [/quote]
