This is a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom house on a 28.42 x 113.67 foot lot overlooking Withrow Park at 585 Carlaw Avenue in Riverdale.

It's a good house, but if it weren't for the fridge closet/pantry...

And the backsplash...

 I would have thought it was staged.

Because there is something really tired about this house.  It needs work.  It is obviously more than move right in, but with an asking price of $1,489,000...

You can get something that is completely done, like the house at 196 Bain Avenue...

Sure, it's smaller, but it's done.

So, the person who is buying this is going to do a complete several hundred thousand dollar gut or reno like the people who bought a few doors up at 605 Carlaw Avenue...

That was smaller and sold a year and a half ago for $1,371,000.

Another house down the street at 573 Carlaw sold for $1,100,000 in January...

This house sold...

For $1,571,000.

And once the reno is done, this will be a $2.2 house.
