Hi.

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

Enjoy!

SOLD - 458 Carlaw Avenue - RIVERDALE

SOLD - 458 Carlaw Avenue - RIVERDALE

A little over a week ago, a reader sent in the listing for this 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom semi on a 1.58 x 100 foot lot at 458 Carlaw Avenue.

It was listed at $739,000.

After a quick look at the house, I thought it might go over $800,000.  It did have Pellegrino after all...

But then I realized the basement wasn't finished...

The stove jutted out of the counter like this...

The third floor looked like it might be a little chilly...

The neighbour's garage was a little imposing...

And it was only 2 doors down from this little strip mall...

Unfortunately, I didn't post it because...

It sold on Wednesday for $734,000...

And on Friday, as you may already know if you have been following the news, this happened (which is why I am posting it today)...

Drake and Rihanna shot a video at The Real Jerk on Friday night...

The same restaurant that is located in the mall I mentioned above that is located 2 doors down from this house...

Click here to see a clip of Rihanna taping part of the video.

Would this have increased the price of the house if they had listed it this week instead?  Probably not. 

 But I am sure it caused a lot of excitement on the street last night...

Especially since Sandi was there...
