This is a 4+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom house on a 25 x 123 foot lot with 2 parking spots at 46 Herbert Avenue in the Beaches.

It's a house that used to look like this...

When I saw the front of this renovated house, I thought of the house at 4 Lennox Street in Harbord Village...

They look similar with the wood siding.

According to the listing, this house was designed by German architect Felix Leicher who also designed a semi at 34 Louvain Avenue in Leslieville that was the Globe and Mail Home of the Week in October 2015...

I don't think he was also the architect of 4 Lennox Street but there are some similarities...

Like the stairs (again).

Here are the stairs in this house...

And here are the stairs at 4 Lennox...

So, not exactly the same but similar.

And like the 4 Lennox house, I really like this house.

I love the kitchen.  I can't figure out if the handles on the white drawers are yellow or brass (I think yellow) but I love the monochrome black handles with the black doors.

There is a good sized family room at the back with a huge sliding glass door that goes to a fairly good sized deck and a lawn that is half pea gravel for a driveway.

The bedrooms are all a good size with good bathrooms (I'm not loving the faux wood tile in the shower) and there is a large third floor principal room with a walk-in closet and a large bathroom.

Plus, the basement has a rental unit or what the listing calls a 'teen suite'.

And if you use it as a rental, as far as floor plans go...

This one is kind of perfect.

The asking price for this house is $2,099,000.

I'm thinking it will probably sell closer to $2,325,000.
