42 Tarlton Road - CHAPLIN ESTATES

This is a quick flip but it is done well.

This house was listed in February for $895,000.

It was then listed again in June for $1,408,000 (that's a random number).  The price has since dropped to $1,359,000.

It has 3 parking spaces, 3+1 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and it sits on a 37.37 x 124 foot loot.  Problem is that is VERY close to Eglinton.  It is right beside a 4 storey office building and an alleyway.  In this neighbourhood, the alley isn't a big deal but even if this house were 5 houses south, it would be better.  It's just really close to Eglinton.

It is typical  flip but done well though I am not loving the stair way windows or the front entrance tile.  It looks like it would be very slippery if it got wet.

Otherwise, this is a really good house.  It is what the house at 135 Chaplin Crescent wanted to be.

If the house a few streets west at 1023 Spadina that was smaller and  needed a lot of work sold for $974,500 and if 22 Cornish, a house with one more bedroom in Moore Park but still a semi, sold for $1,420,000, then the price seems to make sense.

Maybe $1,279,000 would get more interest though.
