AND IT WENT FOR - 226 Riverside Drive - SWANSEA

It sold!!!!!!!!

The house with the tusks...

And the amazing view at 226 Riverside Drive in Swansea has finally sold!

I first posted this 3+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 120 x 185 foot lot overlooking the Humber River in July 2012.

The asking price was $3,198,000.  It had also been listed in 2008 for $2,998,000 but I still thought that even if it sold for asking then, it wasn't going to sell for the $3.2 ask in 2012.

It didn't and a year later in June 2013 the price was dropped to $2,799,000.  In October, it was relisted at the same price.

Then in May 2014, it was down to $2,788,000.  I suggested they stage, and perhaps remove the tusks.

They didn't.

The price was dropped again in September 2014 to $2,600,000.  

By December, it was still on the market for $2,600,000, but I posted it again because they added a new angle of the tusks...

Perhaps that was what did it because this house has finally sold....

For $2,450,000.
