9 Murdock Avenue - THE DANFORTH

This is a 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom semi with 2 parking spots on a 15 x 110 foot at 9 Murdock Avenue on the south side of the Danforth in Danforth Village.

It's a house that used to look like this in 2014...

And it appears that they were still renovating it just 2 months ago (and possibly having an issue about the mutual walk with the neighbours?)...

So...it is a flip.

And other than the wood on the living room wall (which I would paint white) and the fact that the front hall closet makes the living more like a nook...

It is a good flip. 

I love the stairs with the glass that makes it feel airy but still has wrought iron rails.  Actually, the stairs may be my favourite part of the hosue.

The kitchen is good especially for a small house.  I don't love the bathroom tile choices but the wood floors are great, the bedrooms are a good size with storage, and the basement is finished with another bathroom and natural light coming through the glass stair rails.

And there is parking.

It is listed at $949,000.

Considering that a 3+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom house around the corner on a wider 17.6 foot lot at 51 West Lynn Avenue...

Sold for $885,000 in May...

And the fact that this has been on the market for a few weeks...

I'm guessing the price might be a little high.

(thanks to the reader for sending in the listing!)
