When I first saw this 3+2 bedroom, 5 bathroom house on a 51.29 x 233.79 foot lot, I really liked it.  

It looked great from the driveway and, though the inside isn't my style, it is a really great house.

But that isn't why I am posting it.

I am posting this because this has to be former Toronto Mayor David Miller's house, right?

Why else would you have a framed photo of his front page Globe and Mail win announcement hanging up in your washroom!?!

It says, 'Miller Cruises to Victory' (I think).

This house was listed at $1,975,000.

It sold in 2 weeks...

For $1,975,000.

I have to say, that backyard is AMAZING...

There is something about it that reminds me of a casual version of the backyard at 540 Av. Argyle in Montreal, but without the pool...

And a few less trees...

And....

Uhhhhmm....am I kind of crazy to admit that I REALLY love this fabric?
