AND IT WENT FOR - 47 Bennington Heights Drive - BENNINGTON HEIGHTS

In October, I posted

this 4+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom house on a 50 x 103 foot lot at 47 Bennington Heights in Bennington Heights.

There was a lot that I liked about the house, but I wasn't crazy about the fridge placement in the kitchen or the kitchen faucets.  And I didn't get all the little windows and the 2 sliding doors.  I would have preferred a large glass door.

I also didn't get that space at the front of the house with the bathroom and a mudroom just beyond it.  It seemed like it would be a dumping ground for strollers and hockey bags which is probably not the first thing you want to see when you first walk into your house.

Otherwise, it was a great house in a very family friendly neighbourhood.

The asking price was $3,250,000.

I thought that if the house around the corner at

9 Burnham Road

...

Could

sell for $3,250,000 a year earlier

...

Then this probably wasn't too far off.

But a lot of readers weren't crazy about that kitchen (which could easily be brightened up with some white paint).

The house didn't sell and the

price was dropped in November to $2,996,000.

And then

again a couple of weeks later to $2,895,000.

If finally

sold

last week...

For $2,750,000.
