In August 2014, a reader sent in the listing for

this 5+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom house on a 50 x 146.83 foot lot at 173 Lawrence Avenue East in Lawrence Park.

It was an interesting house....to say the least.

At first glance, there was a crazy mix of stone being used on the house and the driveway.  Then I looked closer and I saw this...

And then I saw this...

And this...

And this tile...

What was going on here!?!

This was clearly a flip because this is what the house used to look like...

The asking price was $2,188,000.

Unsurprisingly, it didn't sell and the price was dropped in June 2015 to $2,149,000.  And then in July 2015 to $2,095,000.

And

then a week later to $1,995,000.

At the end of May, it was on the market again.  They staged it this time and changed that fireplace...

And they added this...

The new asking price was $2,149,000.

It has since had a price drop (thanks to a reader for pointing that out!).

The new asking price for this house is...

$1,728,800.
