This luxury home has been on and off the market. Kris and I saw it on a Broker’s Tour when a different agent listed it for $6,595,000. In November 2017, they listed it for $6,250,000. They reduced the price to $599,900 in October 2018. After the listing expired, they relisted it for $5,995,000 in September 2019. In November 2022, someone leased it for $16,850 per month. It would be fascinating to know who paid that much rent for two years—likely a business executive.
