1 Fenwick Avenue - RIVERDALE (CLICK ON PHOTO TO READ MORE!)

This is a 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom house on a 40 x 120.17 foot corner lot over looking Withrow Park at 1 Fenwick Avenue in Riverdale.

Several readers have sent it in (thanks!) with one reader interesting in making an offer and wondering if they will be close.

Because it is pretty clear that a house in this location, with this sized lot, with 3 parking spaces, and amazing curb appeal...

And an asking price of $1,100,000...

They are clearly looking for a bidding war.

Who cares if the forced air vents are apparently completely disgusting...

Or if it backs onto a school...

Am I crazy that I like that?

This is a good looking, good sized house, in a great location with parking.

And though it needs a LOT of work, it could be amazing.

With probably about $500,000 (maybe more but the 'bones' look good) or a little more for an addition, this could be a bigger version of the house on the 30 x 100 foot corner lot with 3 car parking at 13 Bowden Street...

That sold for $1,980,000 two years ago.

If the house that I recenlty posted at 14 Sparkhall Avenue ...

Sold for $1,148,000

And the house overlooking the park at 605 Carlaw Avenue that is currently being fully gutted....

Sold for $1,371,000 a year ago....

Then this house is going waaaaaaay over ask.

This house might be a little bit too close to the Danforth for some, but it is a great street.

I'm thinking this will sell closer to $1,450,000....maybe a little less .

P.S. That ivy is really creeping me out...
