Considering that this house around the corner at 53 Shields was listed at $829,000 and I think sold for high $8s (correct me if I am wrong), this house listed at $996,000 makes sense.

Considering that the kitchen needs to be done and the backyard is a little rough (and there seems to be a heat issue in the basement), I don't think this will sell for much more over asking.  Maybe $1,030,000 but not much more.  

Other than the kitchen, this house is done. If you like grey, there is no need to paint.  And the curtains and shutters come with the house.  That is a plus because window coverings are a pain. 

I am surprised about the master bedroom photos though.  The first floor looks so great then the master is a mess.  Throw blankets isn't literal.  They should be folded and the pillows should be straightened out.  But really, I am nitpicking.

This is a good house in a good neighbourhood at a good price.

It won't be on the market for long.
