235 Chaplin Crescent - CHAPLIN ESTATES

This is a 3+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 35 x 120 foot lot at 235 Chaplin Crescent.

And the second I saw this photo and those Fornesatti plates on the wall...

I recognized it from a magazine.  I can't figure out which magazine, but the house itself is giving me a Style at Home feel...

Especially this...

That's a lot of black and white pattern.

According to the listing this house was...

I am just not sure who.

Overall, it's a really good house.  The basement is done, the bathrooms are great, the kitchen is great, it is bright, if you like pools, the backyard is great...

And this is what it looked like 3 years ago...

So...it is all new.

It's located down the street from a house on the same sized lot at 271 Chaplin Crescent (which I said was in Forest Hill for some reason!)...

That was listed last summer for $1,199,000.  To get to the same level as this house, it would need a lot of work.   It sold for $1,200,000.

This house is listed at $1,850,000.

Is this house worth $650,000 more than the house at 271 Chaplin Crescent?  If it was a 4 bedroom house, definitely.  

As an only 3 bedroom house?  It might be a bit high.

But it is a pretty great reno.

Wonder what the Gemini is for...
