I’ve featured both of these homes before, however, there are now updated pictures of both of them. They sure have quite a lot in common. What do they both have in common? They are both newly built, located on the same street in Greenwich, CT, have the same number of bedrooms and bathrooms and feature indoor basketball/squash courts! Also, they were both built by builder Mark Mariani, so that explains the similarities. I prefer house #1, what about you guys?

It was sold on January 31st, 2010 for $14,900,000 and has just recently come back on the market. The interior is decent, but I would expect a lot more in a home if I’m paying $23,500,000. If does have nice views, but it is not oceanfront or anything. Also, I wonder why it has jumped back on the market so quickly? What do you guys think?
