Hi.

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

Enjoy!

SOLD - 20 The Palisades - SWANSEA

SOLD - 20 The Palisades - SWANSEA

This is a 2+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom bungalow on a 37.56 x 96 foot lot at 20 The Palisades in Swansea.

It was a good house that was very well taken care of, had original features like the floors and the fireplace (and I am assuming those built-ins), and a kitchen that was dated but in good shape.

It wasn't on a very deep lot but the lot was very wide at almost 38 feet.

It was listed at $998,000.

For a lot that wide, it was low, and either the agent didn't know what they were doing, or they were looking for a bidding war because I would have thought this would be listed closer to $1,295,000 or a little more.

According to the reader who sent it in the listing yesterday, there was a bidding war...

And it was a bidding war of 35 people!!!

Well, it did have 

Perrier

...

After 35 offers, this house sold...

For $1,533,000.

Crazy?  I don't know.  Unless the plan is to build townhouses, it's too narrow to split.

But a modern new build with a third floor overlooking High Park and Grenadier Pond?  That could be pretty amazing.

(thanks to the reader for sending this in!)
