SOLD - 120 Simpson Avenue - RIVERDALE

On the weekend, a reader sent in the listing for this 4 bedroom, 5 bathroom semi on a 27 x 52.5 foot lot at 120 Simpson Avenue in Riverdale.

It was a house that had been renovated in the last few years and it was a really good renovation.

It had an open feel to the first floor while still having separate rooms. When I saw the dining room...

I immediately thought of the dining room of this Colleen McGill designed house at 6 Rathnelly Avenue...

This house doesn't have a dark ceiling though. I just kind of feel like it would look really good here.

The kitchen is stainless steel which I feel would kind of be a pain in the a** but it looks good. It is really bright with all the windows. And I like the Donald Roberston print...

Upstairs, the 3 rooms are all a good size with a a main bedroom bathroom that I really like. And I like the black walls with the white and yellow wallpaper that was probably inspired by this room by The Brooklyn Home Company...

Which looks like the same company that may have been behind J. Crew's Jenna Lyons' old home..

If I needed an office though, I think I would move that office in the other bedroom up to the third floor where that bed is and put what seems to currently be a guest bedroom on the second floor.

The basement is large with another bathroom.

Only problem is...this lot is really short so you either get a space for an outdoor table or a parking spot. Not both.

So....$1,199,000?

Well, if the house at 15 Riverdale Avenue that needed a lot of work...
