From the Meredith public website, that big old farm house which used to be the Golden Horseshoe was sold in April, 2007, for 2.6 million.
The prior owners, a Boston Bruin defenseman from Ukraine and his Meredith wife, had purchased it for $349k in July, 1996.
They did major, major renovations and improvements, plus it has a super peninsular location.
In today's June 2008 real estate market, what with high gasoline & heating oil, high property taxes, and tight mortgage money, it is now worth $349k, once again.

Sounds like way too much of a decline, same exact parcel? Anyway, the 2.6 mil sounds pretty heady as well, so maybe split it in half?
Steve Chicola I believe had been on Vaudeville, and yes, I saw him do a few things way back then. He was strong as an ox, and his excercise, (other than working harder than three people combined), was passive resistance. He'd hold onto a small tree, and pull and push against it. A great couple Steve and Yula were. That was many, many years ago. His brother had a camp across on Bear Island, and a great daughter, who just happened to be very beautiful (and did I mention she was my age?).
Anyway, the whole family was great, and always treated us like family.
