Captured while stalking homes for House Names in my neighborhood...
... and a small Waterfront Cottage down the street listed as a short sale for $459,000. Guess what the price was when it first came on the market 1 1/2 years ago..., more than 700 thousand! I wonder what my house is worth at this point. Sigh.

Love those red chairs!
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a loss on that cottage - sad.
Nothing like a perfect seat in the perfect spot.
ReplyDeleteHappy RT

So much sadness in this economy. I hope the family can finally make their sale. Just found out this week, we are upsidedown. Oh well, life's a circle. I think I'll take a seat in one of those pretty red chairs and kick back and sit tight.
ReplyDeleteLove those red chairs!
ReplyDeleteOur neighbors are trying to sell their home...bad timing...
Happy RT!
We purchased our home about a year to soon. If we had waited we could have purchased double the house for almost the same price. But, will we ever recoup what we invested? That is the big question now.
ReplyDeleteThe price has dropped although with that location it will certainly rise again!!
ReplyDeleteIt's long been a dream of mine to own a lakehouse. Unfortunately I sort of put the hex on that when I moved to Israel. Not many lakehouses to be found in this part of the world. I'll have to get my fill of lake (access) living when I visit my folks next month instead.
ReplyDeleteOOH what a house! Just need a green card and I'm there!! x Julie
ReplyDeleteThat house is wonderful! But let's not talk about home values - it's too depressing. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the red chairs. A perfect spot to view the water.
ReplyDeleteOh Maya! Beautiful post. Those chairs are absolutely gorgeous. I love the cottage. Can you imagine having to lose it? How sad. Our economy has not been to kind, and so many people who made investments and bought over their budgets are truly suffering. As always I love to stop by and say hi. Thanks for sharing. Country Hugs Maya, Sherry
ReplyDeleteLove the chairs,I'd so love to buy that!
ReplyDeleteI could sooooo use a few moments of relaxation and those chairs would be the perfect place.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a steal! I would love to live there! Loving the red chairs too.
ReplyDeleteI love Adirondack chairs and have a passion for red, so like everyone else I love the chairs.
ReplyDeleteDid you say SMALL waterfront cottage? Looks pretty big to me, I could probably fit my little house in the downstairs! I love the upstairs balcony, I would spend all my time there when I was home.
As long as your not in the market to sell it really doesn't matter yet!
ReplyDeleteThe perfect red chairs in a great spot!
I LOVE those red Adirondack chairs! I've wanted some like that forever!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
Amazing! That house is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat second story porch must be a wonderful place to relax...
ReplyDeleteno kidding!!
ReplyDeleteAh ... LOVE those red chairs! As for what houses are worth ... it's all what the market will bear, right?
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
i want it.
ReplyDeletesold!

Very cute house...but so sad that people are in such a tough spot when they try to sell their homes right now. Let's just hope they owned if for a really long time, and will still make a profit!
ReplyDeleteVery cute cottage...I would love to move...*sigh*
ReplyDeleteAt the end of the week I will have a trip to Mallorca...you can not imagine how much I need to go to the sea and how happy I am for this short trip! Sunny greetings, geisslein
I'm just getting here from your post about my red adirondack chairs...how funny! I love these chairs in any color, but red is really fun and vibrant!
