Hi.

Welcome to the MASH where we gossip about current real estate listings.

Enjoy!

AND IT WENT FOR - 107R Woodfield Road - LESLIEVILLE

AND IT WENT FOR - 107R Woodfield Road - LESLIEVILLE

On Wednesday, I posted this garage on an 18.71 x 21 foot lot at 107R Woodfield Road in Leslieville.

It wasn't the garage for a house with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms at the front.  It was the listing.  

Just the garage.

Kind of like the listing at 233 Leslie Street Rear...

That was listed at $119,000 and sold for $91,500.

Or the shed that had electricity but no running water at 30 Hanson Avenue...

That was listed for $229,000 in August 2013 and sold for $165,000 in September.

Both those places were on smaller lots than this garage.  

And this place was listed at $59,000.

Soooo....

There was clearly going to be a bidding war.

For a garage.

As one reader pointed out, this could be like the laneway house at 2 Miles Place

Which was across the lane from a similar house at 5 Miles Place...

And at $200/square foot to build, if you were going to do 3 storeys like 2 Miles Place, you could build a house with a basement for $300,000.

Soooo...

Not bad...

Depending on how high the bidding war goes.

But it looks like this didn't have a chance to get to a bidding war and someone went in with a bully offer instead...

Because this house  sold the day after I posted it...

And after only 2 days on the market...

For $80,000.

When you consider the laneway house at 42B Grant Street in Leslieville...

Sold for $657,000 two years ago...

And that this was bought for less than the smaller lot at 233 Leslie Street Rear...

I think this was the reaction of the person that put in the bully offer...

......For a garage.
