SOLD - 281 Bedford Park Avenue - BEDFORD PARK

This is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house on a 20 x 120 foot lot at 281 Bedford Park Avenue in Bedford Park.

From the front, it kind of reminds me of the house at 320 Monarch Park Avenue in Danforth Village...

That was listed at $599,900 and recently sold for $790,000...

And the house at 1 Windsor Avenue in Birch Cliff...

That just had its second price drop down to $949,900.

This house is definitely bigger than those 2 houses, and it is in a more central location only steps to the subway.  Plus, it is on a very family friendly, dead end street.  And it has tons of storage which the other 2 did not.

But this house, though it shows well and is very charming, isn't as up-to-date as the other 2.  Here is one of the washrooms...

Which isn't that crazy, but that shower looks like it needs attention.  And the tile just points out that a lot of the main work that was done to this house was done a long time ago.

This house was listed at $1,049,000.

It sold after 6 days on the market...

For $1,278,000.

At that price, I'm thinking someone realized the potential of the lot in this location and decided to live in it as is for now...

But the work that needs to be done needs to be done sooner than later...

So, I'm thinking this is either getting a lot of work done to it now or we are going to see a whole new house in the fall...

Kind of like the houses across the street...
