This is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom row house on a 16.67 x 125 foot lot at 65 Brookfield Street.

It is located just up the street from the house at 49 Brookfield Street that sold for $1,265,000 in March 2012.  It was a flip that looked like this...

And it was great on the inside.

It used to look like this...

So...basically the same house.

But though the houses are the same width (give or take a foot), that house seems sooooo much bigger.

Is it possible to make this house seem as large?  Well, the kitchen would need to be widened to the property line (which I don't think is worth it), and the whole thing would need to get gutted and opened up with the addition of a third floor.

Though there are changes that could be made to this house to open it up, I don't think it needs a full redo.  Maybe just some simple updating and opening up the living room to the dining room.

This house is listed at $749,900.

If this doesn't get mutliple offers (which it will), the price is right to do the whole thing like 49 Brookfield, though that might upset the neighbours...

But this could also be a pretty great house with some touch ups.

I am thinking this will sell closer to $849,000...maybe more if there is someone who is okay with backing onto the back of the strip of restuarants across the alley.

P.S.  Speaking of the alley...there is some pretty awesome graffiti back there!
