Well, the 4th of August, the anniversary of the murders of Andrew and Abby Borden, has passed, and so also, just like the spring follows the winter, the owner of Lizzie Borden’s Maplecroft has taken his home off the market.
You can almost tell time by the appearance and disappearance of the clumsy sign on the front lawn. Each year the price rises, this time to an exorbitant $885,000. Methinks he thinks he will catch a fool.
At least no one fell for it. According to the property assessors office, the value of Maplecroft, for tax purposes, is $328,300.
