AND IT WENT FOR - 285 Withrow Avenue - BLAKE-JONES
Last week, I posted this 3+1 bedroom, 3 bathroom semi on a 17.92 x 137.99 foot lot at 285 Withrow Avenue on the east side of Pape in the Blake-Jones neighbourhood.
It was a good house that could easily be converted into a 4 bedroom house.
And it seems that they used a LOT of pillows to distract from the fact that though this house is basically in Riverdale, it is not in the sought after Riverdale school district.
It was listed at $799,000.
Because of the school district and the fact that there was no parking, I thought this place would sell closer to $865,000.
This house sold in 5 days...
For $952,500.
Maybe they threw in the pillows...
Or it was the Fruit Loops...
Or maybe it was just, as a lot of readers pointed out, that this school disctrict is improving. As one reader put it...
'It's a matter of time before you see the score climbing.'
Along with the cost of the houses!
