The 'S' house has sold again!

And by 'S', I mean...

The the shape of letter. 

I first posted this 3+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 20 x 116 foot lot with a 2 car garage at 132 Yarmouth Road in December 2012 after a reader sent it in saying you need to have a name starting with the letter 'S' to live in this house.

And since this was the old listing photo...

It took me a while, but then I saw the S.  Did the architect not notice that when they drew the plans or was this intentional?

The old listing photos weren't great, but you could see that this wasn't a bad house.  I just wasn't loving this bottom stair...

It was listed at $1,195,000. 

I thought it would sell for $1,099,000.

In March 2013, it sold for $1,075,000.

It was back on the market 2 months later for $1,085,000.  It apparently sold the next day, but I am not sure for how much.

Almost 2 weeks ago, it was back on the market...

With MUCH better pictures and a furniture layout that hid the weird step...

And it looked really good.

It was listed at $1,387,000.

It sold...

For $1,575,000.

Or an increase of approximately $400,000 or 45% in 2 years!?!

So.....

The letter 'O'...

 Ummm....

(thanks to the readers who sent this in!)

*thanks to the readers below for pointing out that this house is located in Christie Pits, not Seaton Village.
