The most recent sale took place in 2008, when 9 Sniffen Court sold for $4.75 million. No. 8 sold the year before that for $4.1 million to a man named Scott G. Pearl. The listing provides no information about the house, but the photos show a wood-burning fireplace, a skylight, and a rooftop deck.
Sniffen Court was constructed in the mid-1800s, and the houses, now protected by landmarks designation, have been very well-preserved. Given the rarity of the listing and how beloved the petite street is, we bet that No. 8 will have no trouble at all finding a new owner, but does it deserve $7.25 million?
