Hi.

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

Enjoy!

SOLD - 20 Frank Crescent - WYCHWOOD/HILLCREST/BRACONDALE HILL

SOLD - 20 Frank Crescent - WYCHWOOD/HILLCREST/BRACONDALE HILL

This is a 5+2 bedroom, 3 bathroom house with 3 parking spots on a 55 x 106 foot lot at 20 Frank Crescent in Wychwood/Hillcrest/Bracondale Hill (whatever you want to call it).

It has been listed since at least March.   I am not certain, but I think the asking price was $1,800,000...

Which, for a 55 foot lot, doesn't seem so crazy.  But it needs a LOT of work.  Basically, it's a gutter. 

It is located around the corner from the house on a 40 x 120 foot lot at

32 Bracondale Hill Road

that used to look like this... 

I really liked the house but thought it was more of a $2,350,000 house.  After some price changes, it eventually

sold 2 months ago for $2,395,000

.

This house is also located around the corner from the house on a 40 x 185.83 foot lot at

16 Bracondale Hill Road

...

That was move in ready but could use some work and had room on the lot for a huge addition.  It was listed at $1,675,000 in 2014.  It

sold the same day I posted it for $2,080,000

...

Making it a $2,520,000 house today.

But the best deal was the house located around the corner from this house.  It was a house on a 50 x 126 foot lot at 

41 Turner Avenue

...

It was listed at $899,000 (yes, for a 50 foot lot).  It

sold for $1,125,000

...

Making it a $1,650,000 house today.

This house that is on a very similar lot and needs a ton of work didn't sell at $1,800,000...

And so the price was raised 2 months ago...

To $2,200,000 which when you compare it to the houses above seems INSANE.

But then there is the the slightly dated but move in ready house on the 45 x 126 foot lot at 

88 Hillcrest Drive

...

It was listed in 2012 at $1,349,000.  It 

sold for $1,551,000

...

Making it a $2,270,000 house today.

So, maybe not so crazy.  But this house needs a LOT more work.

According to a reader, it 

sold 'conditionally'.  And according to MLS, it sold last week, but it was relisted 4 days ago for $2,200,000.

But it looks like those conditions from last week were met because this house is now being reported as sold as of July 5...

And the selling price was...

$2,200,000.

I will repeat what I said in the post for the sale of 16 Bracondale Hill Road...

Wychwood is about to get a even more expensive.

Like $3+ million...maybe $4 million expensive.
