2.8 million is about right for that neighborhood. I’ll bet it’s nice/fine inside but not recently updated. Similarly sized house nearby on 32nd Street near Garfield sold for about that earlier this spring.

Kinda surprised the Lowell house hasn’t sold yet, though it’s only been 10 days. The Woodley house is unrealistically overpriced. Newark will take a special buyer, that might take a little while.

Love the traditional CP look of this one. Price seems a bit high given the age, but who knows in this market.

This is a great house. So much curb appeal between the design, greenery, and stone steps. Interior has a good layout and looks move-in ready, which isn't so common for CP. 100% agree this is a CP classic.

The few drawbacks I see are the kitchen (could use a refresh and redesign), small outdoor space (though there's nice privacy on one side because of the neighboring lot), and location (it's a good and desirable location, but I'd personally rather be closer to Cathedral Commons or the Connecticut strip).

totally disagree about this being a great house at that price. The kitchen layout is nonfunctional - you'd need to do an addition to get it to work.

The house on Lowell has a bad galley kitchen layout, for sure, but knocking down a wall for an open kitchen might be doable.

It seems like they aren't looking into changing any exterior walls at all, even though the house has a not-so-great addition to the side that is not original and that could be substantially improved if it were to be removed and redone. It's a tough lot with not a lot of usable backyard that requires some creativity.

There might be a lousy addition at the back, too. I'm not sure.

The staircase location is part of the problem. It breaks up the floors.

Just did a quick look, so to me the LR and DR seem very small, judging by the furniture in there. I have more furniture in my small, I thought, LR.

I’m only seeing a layout pic, no interior.

Click on the link in OP's post, right under the question about what will it go for, there approx 40 pics there.
