In May, I posted this 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom house with a 2 car garage on a 28 x 184 foot lot at 36 Hogarth Avenue in Riverdale.

It was a nice house that looked like this in 2011...

When it was listed at $1,100,000.

The kitchen and the bathrooms have been updated, there was an addition with a dug out basement below...

But $2,849,500!?!

That seemed really high, escpecially since the house was already feeling dated.

But the house is now on the market again and they have staged and painted...

And it looks soooo much better.  I still don't love the bathroom vanities, the front and side doors, the kitchen with all dark cabinets, the floors, and the windows at the back...

But the paint makes such a difference.

And so does the price.

This house is now listed at $2,499,000.

Another drop of about $150,000, maybe a little more...

And I think this thing is sold!
