SOLD - 34 Winnett Avenue - HUMEWOOD

This house was first listed a month ago for $899,000.

And considering that the 3 bedroom semi with out parking or a washing machine on a 16.67 x 94.5 foot lot at 93 Maplewood Avenue around the corner sold for $###,###...

It's clear to see why this detached 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 25 x 103 foot lot with 3 parking spots raised its price a week later to $979,000.

Sure, the third floor could use some work, the first floor powder room layout isn't the best, and I am not crazy about the floor colour on the second floor, or the basement....

But this is a lot of house with a great back yard and parking.

Plus, the kitchen is new-ish (but I thought you couldn't put a microwave above a gas stove).

This house doesn't show as well as Maplewood, but switch the furniture, and this place is just as good, if not better.

And it has parking.

There is something about it that reminds me of the 4+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom Seaton Village semi at 580 Palmerston Avenue that recently sold for $1,250,000.

And if the smaller 3 bedroom house at 178 Wychwood Avenue that was listed at $983,000 and sold $1,100,000...

It only makes sense that this was eventually listed higher than $899,000.

Though Wychwood did have a pretty amazing patio...

Because this house needs some fix ups, it didn't quite sell as high as 178 Wychwood Avenue. In fact, it didn't even sell at the new asking price.

But it did sell over $899,000.

This house sold a week ago...

For $935,000.

If only it had that patio....
