Too big to sell...too big for the lot... in Harbor View for $ 3.5 Million

Where: 2065 PORT PROVENCE Pl
What: 6 bedroom, 6.5 bath, 7000 sf home on 8429 sf lot, built 2009
Asking price: 3'499'000
last sale: Jan 10 2007 for 1'750'000

Comment: Old house was replaced with new 7000 sf creepy house, too big for the size of the lot, endless space inside with full basement, but hardly any outside space to enjoy. House is right beside a busy road - I was there, it's loud. Kitchen is so big you'll walk a mile per meal, house in general has no cosyness to it. For this price, buy closer to the beach or even at the beach, unless you have 5 or more kids or a mother-in-law you want to accommodate in the spooky basement...

Property Shark estimate 2009: around 2.8 Million
