A 3,621 square foot home is enormous, and unusual, even in these inflated times.
And in these inflated times, a cost of $225,000 seems deflated.
I have identified this property as:
87 EAST Herman Street.
The “East” is important because omitting that would result in a completely different location.
I have verified this location by comparing this publication with a Satellite View.
I have no further comments on this article.
