At first glance, I thought this could be a nice house after a few coats of paint.  It is in a nice neighbourhood called Wychwood that is seeing a lot of development and more and more young families moving in and it seems to be a good size.

Then you notice the lot is only 50 feet long!  There must be no back yard!!

The kitchen is a bit outdated but it seems to be an okay size and that room off the back could be made into a mudroom.

But why did the agent put the dog in a cage and shove it into the fireplace!?!  Move the dog to the kitchen while you are taking the living room picture!  And does that mean that it isn't a working fireplace if that is where the dog sleeps.  

And I find the office on the second floor is kind of a weird place to store your wine.  Or is that just me?

This place needs some work.  Who knows what the bathroom looks like!  And priced at $699,000, for a semi that could use a good $50,000 in upgrades, this house isn't worth it.

I would have priced it at $599,000 hoping to get $575,000.

And they should have gone with the Google Maps photo below of the house from the front.  So much better, even with all the crap in the windows.
