When I saw this house, I liked it right away.  

I don't love the white siding, but I love the yellow brick, and there is just something very welcoming about it.

It is a 3+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 50 x 119.25 foot lot.  The inside is a good size.  It's a little dark for me, but the trim could easily be painted.  The kitchen isn't new but just change the hardware, and the counter top if you want, and the kitchen would be something else altogether (you might need to take out that open shelving though).  Or, if you wanted to spend the money, you could redo the kitchen, or even do an extension.

There is some pretty gross looking carpet upstairs but there is probably good hardwood under there.  The bathrooms aren't completely up to date, but they are fine.

Only thing is...this house is located in Weston.

Though it was ranked as the #5 underrated neighbourhood in 2012 by The Grid TO, it is also ranked as the 103rd safest Toronto neighbourhood out of 140 (or the 37th 'unsafest').  

That doesn't sound so good.

Plus, the Union Pearson Express will be running right through the neighbourhood and it is the location of one of the 2 stops in between.  But that could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.

This house was listed at $679,000.

It sold for $665,000.
