SOLD - 3 Melbourne Place - PARKDALE
Just over a year ago, I posted a 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom house on a 27.08 x 47.83 foot lot at the end of a mews at 6 Melbourne Place in Parkdale.
Even though it wasn't really 3 bathrooms, and it wasn't very large, I really liked it.
It was listed at $689,000. It sold for $###,###.
This house is located across the mews and is 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Two years ago, it was listed for sale for $599,000, and it was the Globe and Mail Home of the Week.
According to the article about this house in 2011.....
A student of Ikibana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement, Mr. Hanna designed the front garden, for instance. He also influenced the choice of slate tile for encasing the tub in the master bathroom and the addition of an updated black-and-white kitchen whose compact minimal style suits a home measuring just over 15 feet wide and 71 feet long.
Ummmm....my bet is that slate tile was on sale at Rona the week of that kitchen and bathroom reno.
Either way, it's a good house. It is move in ready and it is a beautiful street.
From the sounds of it, not a lot has changed in the house in the last few years, but the neighbourhood has.
This house is now listed at $739,000 a week ago.
It sold in 5 days...
For $755,000.
I think we are going to be seeing a LOT more listings in this neighbourhood in the next few weeks.
