Hi.

Welcome to the MASH where we gossip about current real estate listings.

Enjoy!

1 Country Club Drive - HUMBER VALLEY

1 Country Club Drive - HUMBER VALLEY

This house has been listed for a while.

It is a 3+1 bedroom, 5 bedroom house on an 80 x 176 foot lot located on the other side of St. George's Golf Club from the houses at

38 Ridgevalley Crescent

...

And the house with the crazy backyard at

8 Ridgevalley Crescent

...

Of the 3 houses, I like this one the most (though 38 Ridgevalley is a bit of a time capsule).

I'm not so crazy about the colour of the kitchen with the white oak floors, but I suppose those could be painted.  

Or, since it looks like the kitchen was done around the same time as some of the bathrooms (in the 90s or early 00s), the kitchen could be redone.  It doesn't need to be at all, but if you did redo it, it might make more sense to move the kitchen part to where the banquette is and create a family room area where the kitchen is, or create a family room area where the banquette is now.

The master bedroom is large and has a nice new bathroom and the basement is great.  It's just that the living room and dining room seem really dark.  Maybe it's just the photos.  Or maybe you could add a skylight.  

And the backyard is large with a fountain...

It's a nice feature...

But my guess for the installation of such a large water feature was to cover up the noise of the traffic that is coming from Royal York right beside the house...

Which is probably the reason why this house isn't selling.  It's just too close to a lot of traffic for the price.

It was

first listed in May

for $2,198,000.  The price was dropped in June to $2,098,000.

The price was just dropped again...

To $1,998,000.
