Just one new one on the market this week so far. On a fantastic block, the “00″ block (that between Whipple and Hopkins), is:
61 Myrtle: $998,800 — 2br/2ba, 1640 sq. ft. on a large 9,100 sq. ft. lot. Great location, and lots of potential.
Recently sold in the Mt. Carmel area:
- 518 Grand St: List price $850,888. Sale price: $850,888. 5 days on market (although, this one originally tried to come on the market back in June ‘07 for $1,060,888 — was subsequently withdrawn after a couple price reductions).
- 2469 Brewster: List price: $1,250,000. Sale price: $1,200,000. 33 days on market.
- 190 Opal Ave: List price: $850,000. Sale price: $850,000. 11 days on market. Lots of great potential in this one, and on a nice street in the Mt. Carmel neighborhood.
- 436 Sapphire St: List price: $738,888. Sale price: $785,000. 7 days on market. This one sold with 10 offers!!!
So I know the word “recession” is not in the vocabulary of super-hot markets like Palo Alto — but, it appears that the housing situation in the Mt. Carmel area is still not doing too bad!
