This one is listed for 1.05 but no inside pics and is currently "uninhabitable" per the listing?? Seems high for something that will need a complete reno.

Nice, reasonably updated but not jaw dropping or anything.


The jaw dropping ones are going for $400K+ more. I didn't tour this one, but it looks like a nice, livable home that doesn't require any immediate renovations.

We went to the open house yesterday. It was a good amount of space but didn’t have AC outside of the addition. I was shocked to see it was pending before the weekend was over.

I saw that this one was just listed--looks like a better bet, and list price only 700K.

Interesting that they posted the last sold price--$45K in 1972.

This one looks like a better deal at 700K. Kitchen is modern enough to need no immediate changes. Central AC is the main desired renovation.


I guess someone agreed this was a good deal—pending after two days on the market


OSTT is attracting a lot of families moving from New York/New Jersey where $700 feels like chump change.


+100, as a resident I noticed that most of the new houses have been bought by OSTT families!

It is being sold as-is, and probably had an elderly owner. who may or may not have had the means to maintain. Still, gorgeous bones! GREAT price for the neighborhood. I predict a biding war.

It's not so much that the photos are unprofessional here, it's that there are so few of them beyond the (1970s-era) kitchen. Huge red flag.

The photographer's 2002 memory card only held nine 1-megapixel photos.

DP, but good point. I'm assuming it's priced for a developer to purchase and flip it.

I guess yellow paint in your living room makes it Tuscan?


“Tuscan retreat” is pending in less than a week.
