What's New?
Twenty-one listings are currently active in Piedmont and with the reintroduction of 50 Bellevue Avenue; the average list price comes in at $626 a square foot. (Many of you might have seen this grand property two years ago on the CSL kitchen and home tour.) Offering 5bdrms/4bths and a stunning gourmet kitchen, it’s still every bit as spectacular. Listing price: $4,995,000.
I keep singing the praises of 155 Hagar Avenue and with good reason. This atypical contemporary includes 4bdrms/3bths, cool and breezy open floor plan, panoramic view and decks, and downstairs family/media room, allowing for separation or easy gatherings. List price: $1,595,000
Don’t forget 533 Blair – a storybook traditional, centrally located and amenable to offers as they come!
What's Coming?
No longer coming - it's here! The Piedmont Calendar is up and running at www.thepiedmontcalendar.com. This is your community bulletin board so send in your calendar requests for any events you'd like to share . . .
What's Pending?
The lovely Traditional on Nova Drive went pending with 8 offers last week, as did the charming Turn-of-the-Century Farmhouse at 219 Sunnyside. Rumor has it that it received 7 offers in two days, even with significant foundation and roof issues. That one surprised us all! Both of these properties point out the demand hovering at the $1.2 million mark. Portsmouth is now in contract as is Highland Avenue and my own fabulous French Normandy listing on King has sold to the back up buyers who had patiently waited in the wings. Sometimes, committing to a back-up position works to your advantage.
What's Happening Now?
A few great values have been overlooked and they are ripe for the picking! Kathy Cooper’s two-story Traditional at 1607 Grand Avenue has been reintroduced with significant improvements which include, fresh paint, new roof, refinished floors, remodeled bathrooms and updated kitchen with all new appliances. At $995,000 this 3bdrm/2bth home is turn key and a really good buy.
If mid-century is your heart's desire, 451 Wildwood and 50 Woodland Way await your offer. There’s updating to be done on both, but they could really prove to be spectacular investments and homes, given their potential.
What's Fun!
I took last weekend off to join my son and his fourth grade class at Haven’s for a fun-filled weekend at Camp Augusta. For the uninitiated, Camp Augusta is Piedmont’s own summer camp near Nevada City and more than 200 campers (children and adults alike) joined the fantastic group of counselors for a walk in our children’s shoes. I spent two days maneuvering high ropes courses, zip lines, and climbing walls before coming back to Earth for target practice and mountain boarding. (Look out!) We capped the weekend with a square dance in the playing fields and ate ice cream off the Lazy Dog truck. (If you ever have the good fortune to come upon this truck - run, don’t walk to it!) The weather was perfect, the participating families were wonderful and the entire experience was memorable. Thanks to all of you who made the trip possible. (Camp Augusta also offers family camp weekends, so if you haven’t yet had an opportunity to visit and enjoy the camp, I highly recommend it.)
P.S. Camp Augusta receives no funding from the City of Piedmont and relies solely on our donations to keep it running. Please mark your calendars for the Annual "Ho Down" Fund Raiser on Saturday, September 29 and plan on joining your fellow Piedmonters in their support of this amazing legacy. We’re so lucky to have it!
See you next week and have a safe holiday!
