Real Estate

For The Price Of A Garden City Home, You Can Buy An Entire Town. Three Times.

You could buy 19 homes and a schoolhouse, or property in Garden City.

No one has ever accused Garden City real estate of being inexpensive. But which would you rather own: a home in Garden City, or an entire town in Pennsylvania?

Also, the house costs more than three times as much as the entire town.

The town in question is Reduction, a 75-acre town located in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. It comes with 19 single-family homes (all have at least two bedrooms), a duplex, a 1914 one-room schoolhouse and some farmland. It sits along the picturesque Youghiogheny River, about 30 miles south of Pittsburgh. The asking price for the town is a reasonable $1.5 million.

Or you could invest your money into a single piece of property. There's 8 Carteret Place in Garden City. This 16-room house sits right on the links at the Garden City Golf Club, and features tons of unique and beautiful features. And it can be yours for only $4,999,999.

But that's far from the only Garden City property that costs more than Reduction. Which would you rather have: an entire town, or one of the properties below? Let us know in the comments.
