Hi.

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

Enjoy!

478 Melrose Avenue - LEDBURY PARK

478 Melrose Avenue - LEDBURY PARK

This 3+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom home located north west of Avenue and Lawrence is not going to sell for it's asking price.

It is listed at $1,875,000.

This is what it used to look like...

The current house was designed by architect Reza Aliabadi of atelier rzlbd.  It is called 'Patio House' which is kind of funny because there is no patio at either end, just the little orange patio in the middle of the house.

If this is your style of house, then this is probably amazing!  But if this isn't your thing, you probably think it is hideous.  I don't love the outside but feel that the inside could become less sterile with some different furniture.  The all white leather is a little too modern minimalist for me.

It reminds me of this picture of Karim Rashid...

It needs a little more of this Karim Rashid...

Or neither!

Keep it minimalist!

No matter what style you go with or even if this is your dream house, there is no way this house is going to sell for asking.  It's only 2,000 square feet!  And there is no yard.

It is definitely better than the house at 50 Sullivan in Chinatown that can't sell at $1,629,000 and it is down town!  

This might sell for $1,450,000.
