I think this makes sense. I do think there are better options at this price point. I was confused about why the bathrooms had 12x12 tiles— which feel builder grade— but maybe the materials of those tiles are upscale.

Every single bathroom sink is ridiculous. It’s a four million dollar fixer upper because they made bad choices when doing the gut reno.

They do have eclectic tastes when it comes to bathroom sinks lol.

Right? Where am I supposed to put my toothpaste, face wash, moisturizer etc. Every single one is non functional for actual things you need to do in the bathroom.

Agree with PP. I would not pay more than $3.3M

It's been on the market for 4+ months. Gut renovated and expanded ~20 years ago. Originally listed for $5.3M, down to $4M. Cleveland Park is still in demand, as we understand it.

You answered your own question:

It's priced too high.

What's off is it's priced too high.

It is sterile. The owners/flippers took all the historical charm out of a 1920s house.

yeah, ugly inside; no usable garden space outside for kids to run around. very limited parking. not worth it for that price.

I’m not seeing the driveway and garage in the listing pics, where are people seeing that?

Lovely setting! For me, it's that the inside and outside don't match. The inside looks like you're in a new build or flip redo boxy modern home. From the neighborhood and curbside, I would expect and want a warm homey interior.

I like it.

You would need to fix some things, I would either redo the kitchen or maybe start by painting cabinets, new hardware/counter/backsplace to see how that goes. Maybe paint or use rugs and art to bring color to the space.

The pool will automatically make some buyers not want it. If I had young children I would not go near a pool without a fence/that close to the home.

If I had $4 million I would look at this home. I love that it backs up to a ravine. I wonder if you could fix the rest of the yard so you had more space or if that is not possible/cost a fortune.

I also don't love the driveway, but you can't get everything so close-in. I don't mind that a car can't fit in the garage- you can put bikes and use it as storage.

As others have said you only need one offer.
