41 Melville Avenue - CHRISTIE PITS

This is a 3+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom detached house on a 20 x 110 foot lot just south of Dupont at 41 Melville Avenue.

It's a great house.

I would say it is more like a 2+2 bedroom house, but as it is set up now, the master is in the 3rd floor creating the 3+1.  It just means that there is no bathroom on the same floor as the master.  So...it doesn't really count and this is really a 2+2 house.

But there is space where the couch is if you wanted to build a bathroom, and considering there is a toilet below, it might not be difficult.

Everything about this house is done.

It has a good floors, the kitchen is done (not super fancy but done), the basement is done with a bedroom that could be a mudroom, there is a double car garage.

I am just not crazy about the dining room wallpaper.  If I were going to do wallpaper, I would maybe go with this Fornasetti II Aquario wallpaper that I recently saw at a friend's house...

I know it probably isn't for everyone and might be better in a bathroom, but I really like it.

Back to the house...

It's a great house.

The asking price is $899,000.

Considering the 3 bedroom semi at 32 Vermont Avenue in Seaton Village that was listed at $1,099,000 and didn't have parking recently sold for $1,070,000...

And this is arguably a better house, even though it has few bedrooms and a 'not quite as good' location, I think this could sell for close to $985,000....

Higher if there was a bathroom on the third floor.
