17 Ottawa Street - SUMMERHILL

This house is a semi-detached and has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a finished basement (though that marble in the basement would not be cozy in the winter unless it had radiant heating).  There is an infinity deck on the second floor and a nice main floor patio with a patch of grass for kids to play on.

Located in the heart of Yonge and Summerhill and only a 15 minute walk to Yorkville, this is a nice alternative to a condo as well as my last post but much more expensive with a listing price of $1,095,000.  I am guessing that would be because it is in a much fancier location, steps to Rosedale shops and the Yonge subway line, and the fact that this house is more than 3 feet wider but there is no parking and in the Summerhill neighbourhood, street spots are hard to come by.  

I love this house and the renovation.  I especially love the tile in the front hall and the kitchen but I think I would switch some things around.  I would probably move the dining room to the living room as it is a longer room and have the living room in the more square area and also make it a family room.  I would also add a bench seat in the kitchen with stools on the other side so that it could be used as a full eat in kitchen for the family. 

Do you think $1.1 is too much?  Will this place sell?  You know, the furniture isn't staying in the house...
