Hi.

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

Enjoy!

167 Silver Birch Avenue - BEACHES

167 Silver Birch Avenue - BEACHES

This is a 3+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom house with 2 parking spots on a 25 x 118 foot lot at 167 Silver Birch Avenue in the Beaches.

It is located 2 doors down from the 4+1 bedroom, 4 bathroom house on a 49.91 x 118.5 lot at 163 Silver Birch Avenue...

And I don't know what it is but they have a similar feel.

This house is more than fine but it is a little more new build-y and dated.  But it could be updated with a few changes.

The changes I would make would be the floors, the stairs, the railing, the kitchen colour and counter, and the bathrooms.  I think I would make that front door the front door again.  It's kind of odd.  And I wonder if there would be enough room to move the dining table into the living room and create a better family room area in the kitchen (and then maybe a new kitchen that is larger and goes into that area with the couch).

Oh yeah, and I'd get rid of that gross looking carpet.

So, a fair bit of work but it could make a huge difference to the house.

The house at 163 Silver Birch sold for $1,670,000 in 2012.

This house is now listed at $1,799,000.

Considering it is a only 3 bedrooms and is kind of dated, I think the price is high.

But $1,670,000...with some room to make a few changes?  That could work.

P.S.  What is with the Beaches and hot tubs!?!  

I don't get it.
