Millerton Plaza sold for $1.75 million

MILLERTON — Recorded transfers of property are informative because they include all real estate ownership changes — not just ones handled by real estate brokers. Off-market sales tend to be between friends or family, properties “sold by owner,” distressed situations, and often commercial properties such as the sale of the Millerton Plaza, the Town of North East’s supermarket, for $1.75 million. The sale of the “Ice House” at 12 State Line Road by the owner — whose address is in Rio de Janeiro — for only $160,000 is an example of a distressed sale that took years and was never publicly listed. In December of the eight recorded transfers only three were listed on any MLS. The four residential properties transferred privately all sold at prices well below the three publicly listed houses.

In Mid-January the Town of North East had 12 homes listed for sale ranging from $399,000 to $5.9 million, and 16 parcels of land also with a huge range of $3.4 million to five building lots for less than $79,000.

49 Simmons St. — 3 bedroom/2 bath renovated village house on .38 acres sold for $505,000.

31 Traver Place — 3 bedroom/2 bath house sold for $437,500.

20 Haight Road — 3 bedroom/1.5 bath house sold off-market for $160,000.

144 Skunks Misery Road — additional .98 acres of land in a lot line alteration sold off-market for $50,000.

6118 Route 22 — 4 bedroom/1 bath house sold off-market for $220,000.

12 State Line Road — long abandoned 3 bedroom/2 bath house on 3.81 acres known as the Ice House sold off-market for $137,101.

There is a long history of making sacrifices and commitments for Lent, modeling our discipleship and hopes for a more heavenly world. It is through this lens that I invite you to join us in considering what gifts and services the community needs that we can commit to bringing forth in the weeks leading up to Easter.While many lean into solitary introspection during Lent, it may be particularly advantageous to use our meditations and sacrifices for the greater good this year.
