#25 - 7 Brimley Road - CLIFFSIDE (UPDATE)

On what feels like the first day of winter, in mid-January, I thought I would post a listing that is probably least appealing to visit in the middle of winter.

This is a 1+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom houseboat at #25 - 7 Brimley Road South in Cliffside.

It is a located at the start of a row of houseboats at Bluffer's Park Marina...

It is located doors down from the houseboat that I posted in July 2012 at #17 - 7 Brimley Road South...

And the houseboat that I posted this summer at #15 - 7 Brimley Road South...

Those places were listed at $359,000 and $650,000 respectively.

Sure, there is a big difference in price there but there was also a 3 year spread between listings, and #15 was a little more up to date.

It's hard to tell the state of the interior of this place because there are no photos.  But from the looks of the streetview...

It looks like it is has been updated since 2009 (assuming that is the right place).

With this location, there is only one other houseboat on one side which means there are lots of windows.  

Like the houseboat at #15, this houseboat is also listed at $650,000.

But...

In January, when it is -8 degrees....

That might be a hard sell.

It will be interesting to see if they come out with more photos for the spring relist.

UPDATE:  Thanks to the reader for sending the link for the interior photos (see below).

And...ummmm......

Here is a story that was aired on CTV in May 2015 about these float homes...
