PRICE DECREASE - 79 Markham Street - TRINITY-BELLWOODS
This house has been listed since December.
It is
a 3+3 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 25 x 67.25 foot lot at 79 Markham Street in Trinity-Bellwoods.
And it is the house that had 2 fires and 1 explosion happen all in less than 2 years.
In
September 2013, it had a fire that caused $100,000 in damage only 2 days after the current owner took possession of it for $550,000.
Then in December 2014, two months after
a Committee of Adjustment report

Workers renovating a Markham St. home arrived Monday morning to find two large plastic buckets — one on the main floor, one upstairs — each containing a chemical liquid and a submerged barbecue-like element connected to a timer and plugged into a wall, according to Toronto Fire Services.
Then in January 2015, there was an explosion and another fire!
In March, it was on the market for $759,900
with a listing photo that looked like this...
I guess it didn't sell because this new build was put on the market in December by the same owner as before.
The asking price was $1,188,000.
With this bathroom...
On a 67.25 foot lot...
That wasn't going to happen.
It didn't sell and at the
end of January, a reader emailed to say there had been a price increase.
The new price was $1,388,000.
Unsurprisingly, it didn't sell.
The price has now been decreased...
To $1,258,888.
