HoarfrostHubb Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Well there's a nice one for sale for 400k, lol....that's like the price of a 1600 sq ft Cape in Natick. http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/358C-Mountain-Rd_Princeton_MA_01541_M43981-58064?row=1 That's a lot of house for that price in Princeton. Good spot. Not my cup of tea but nice to know they are out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 That's a lot of house for that price in Princeton. Good spot. Not my cup of tea but nice to know they are out there Yeah 3500 sq ft is big...I'd expect that to be like 600-700k on mountain rd in Princeton with that view...400k would be more like 2000 sq ft on that road. But OTOH...the market isn't exactly sizzling either right now outside of metro Boston. The boonies have been slower to recover. As I've been looking, even places like Hopkinton are not great sellers markets at the moment. They are near average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 You guys going to be buying soon? Yes. But not a massive hurry. Better to start looking early so you can be picky. If something amazing came up in the next few months, then we'd probably bite, but otherwise sometimes next year is most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 And it's proverbially cheating to do it... We're under 582 heights with upper 560s thickness, and just because one contour of heights curled back SW around the arc of this ridge there is WAAAAaaaay over compensating production of summer-polar high tucking into NE with this huge anomaly surface result relative to those governing synoptic appeal. Par for the course for a summer where results are like ...less than plausible, 100% of the time. This weather is pants tent city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Lol you know him well, he aint moving to some ASL water front suburb My guess is he'll compromise with Megan. Probably somewhere a weenie's length outside of 495. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORH_wxman Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Lol you know him well, he aint moving to some ASL water front suburb Princeton is a bit too far...but yeah, no torch spots, if it's low elevation, it's gotta be N of the pike and west of 128. But more liklely, a place with elevation near the 495 belt. Hopkinton was appealing...500+ feet elevation in a good chunk of the neighborhoods there.

Commute plays a big role...I work in Boston so I can't be too far away. She is in Walpole so anything close 495 is pretty easy for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I'd love to be right there over 1k. Maybe some time down the road when things settle down. I like living near the water and good storms, but not a fan of heat. Wife is 100% opposite of me, so I have work to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to have an anchor but that anchor has kept us from drifting too far off course. Last winter I witnessed a transformation in my wife, she spent as much time outside shoveling, playing, romping in the snow as I did. She actually bought top of the line snowboarder pants and jackets to enjoy it more. I broached the subject of second home retirement vacation two bedroom place in Western Maine and she was all for it, think I may have converted her.

I think if anything, after meeting me, she hates winter lol. Last winter cemented that, as she had hell for 6 weeks....not because of me going absent either. I have family here and that matters for kids etc. They've helped us out a lot and I can't afford to leave that behind. 30 more inches of snow a year isn't worth it at the moment.

Ginx snewx Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Rangeley...was up there this summer and it's awesome. I could only imagine in the winter. West Bethel to Rangeley area. I visited a weenie ridgeline in Bethel this year with a magnificent 360 degree view of the Mahoosics and the Whites, tons of snow more than anywhere around. Total weenie spot and I was pleasantly surprised at the house price for what I am looking for. Next summer is planned for a trip to bring my wife to look.

Typhoon Tip Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 wouldn't this result in the first tropical storm ever to reach the Gulf of Alaska ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 This weather is pants tent city. That's really what's been going on in the verification trends, since ...circa January 15 earlier this year. This is the year of the 'Great jerk-off American desires and disillusion them away from thinking the world is the big festering pile of feces that it's becoming' Pope Francis: "The world has become an immense pile of filth." Wow. When the clarity of crisis cuts through the covet of the church to where even they can't deny it, yet the weather its self, man's first and most clear sensible connection to the state of the climate actually goes out of its way to LIE to the one culture that is most conducive for necessary change? that's gotta be some creepy bad luck. Abroad, thousand have perished because of untenable torrid heat in the last 10 years, at an alarming right. Statistically, an order of magnitude more than the previous someodd horror story years combined. Yet, here in the good old U.S.'s with our apparent blessed bubble of temperate lies, the climate could not be more utopian. The good ole U.S. of A, the most prolific exploiter of natural resources per capita on the planet, quite plausibly, mathematically the greatest cause of any anthropogenic forcing, gets protected from sniffing their own farts... That's got to be the worse thing ever, how marvelous - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 wouldn't this result in the first tropical storm ever to reach the Gulf of Alaska ? Looks similar to 1975, otherwise I couldn't find any storms up there: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Tip Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Yeah, TPC on shrooms I guess... Maybe this won't work out... who knows. But I believe that's a TS strength above the 50th parallel, which is the outer GOA region. Probably doesn't signify much beyond anomaly. It's probably happened before. I just don't recall ever seeing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
