Hi.

Welcome to the MASH where we gossip about current real estate listings.

Enjoy!

189 Woodmount Avenue - EAST YORK

189 Woodmount Avenue - EAST YORK

When I first saw this 2+2 bedroom, 3 bathroom house on a 25 x 100 foot lot at 189 Woodmount in East York, I wasn't sure I was going to like it.

But then I saw the inside.

I love it.

I am not crazy about some of the bathroom tile choices, but the house is great.  And bright.  I wasn't expecting it to be bright.

With the way the bedrooms are laid out, I don't think this is suitable for a young family, but it could be a house for a family with teenagers.  The parents could use the front bedroom on the first floor and the kids could go in the basement.  

That basement would be great as a teenager.

Or since there is a door to the basement that can be shut off from the first floor, this could be a great condo alternative with a terrific 2 bedroom basement rental. 

The only problem is the laundry.  From what I can see, there is only the one set of machines in the basement.

(And there is no dining space upstairs, but that room with the murphy bed could become a dining room.)

Otherwise, this is a great house that used to look like this...

I am not sure what it sold for, but it is now listed at $649,900.

Considering that an unrenovated bungalow around the corner at 51 Frayter Avenue...

Sold for $375,000 almost 3 years ago...

And turned into this...

Even though this house has been listed for 8 days...

 I'm thinking this is selling over $700,000.

It does have 2 sets of Pellegrino...

(thanks to J for sending this in!)
