49 Woodlawn Avenue East - SUMMERHILL

Okay.  This house is a MESS.  And I am not talking about all the 8 tracks and extension cords.

This house, for some insane reason, has the staircase literally in the centre of the house.  Why the hell is that happening!?!  The floors on the second floor slope like nobodies business and the bathrooms are not nice.

I can't tell who lives here.  There are 8 tracks galore but then there are a bunch of kids VHS movies like Pocahontas, and bath toys, and Cetaphil face wash...

It doesn't matter though because this place is a gutter.  And an AMAZING opportunity to live in this neighbouhood.

At $1,429,000, this place is a steal if you have an extra $600,000 to $800,000 to gut, extend and redo this place.   $2,200,000 for this place seems like a lot but not when you compare it to this place, it is very appealing.  It is only one street north, with a south facing backyard, on a dead end street , steps to a great parkette, far away enough from the subway to not hear it but close enough for the convenience...  

If I could, I would buy and gut this place in a heartbeat.  The neighbourhood is great (including the YMCA Women's Shelter across the street), there are great schools, and when you are done, this place will be worth $2,600,000.  AT LEAST.

Please, please, PLEASE, don't let this be sold to a flipper who is just going to f-ck it up!!
