In this week's Above Asking, we highlight a home that we labeled as a value in Spring Valley way back in July and that proved to be true when it closed recently.

A $135,000 Premium In Spring Valley

In a neighborhood where homes regularly sell for well above $2.5 million, this three-bedroom represented quite a good value when it hit the market back this summer. And when it closed for $135,000 above asking earlier this month, we were proven correct. The carefully maintained fieldstone colonial in Spring Valley has been thoughtfully updated over the 40 years. The listing sits on a flat lot with a fully-fenced in backyard and garden. UrbanTurf's favorite rooms are the living room with its gas fireplace and the renovated screened porch with recessed lighting and a ceiling fan.
