I looked at the picturesand listing for that house--the first one, which I believe was the 2.4 million one. I thought for that price it was on too small of a lot, and the interior needed a lot of updating, especially the paint colors. At least one of the living spaces was very narrow and very dark, and that could not be changed without moving walls, which is costly. The statues in the pool looked too... I don't know. Rococo? If you wanted to remove them, how? Are they cemented down?
It seemed very out-of-current style ornate and would need work.
I don't think Central Park view had anything to do with GG's assessment. I think it was more the style of the house... Although I too would take Central Park if I had the income to make living in NYC easy-- taxi money, gym money, a winter house in the tropics, and lots and lots of dining-out funds.
