It's not a McMansion!!!

In June 2012, I posted a 3+2 bedroom, 3 bathroom mid-century bungalow on a 75 x 163.97 foot lot at 12 York Valley Crescent in Hogg's Hollow...

It was a great house that had an entryway that looked like this...

And I loved it.  But considering the houses across the street looked like this...

I assumed it would get torn down and turned into one of those house.

It didn't.  Instead, they updated it and practically every photo could be in a magazine.  I don't love the kitchen and that layout with the dining table in the kitchen is a bit weird though it does remind me of the condo that I loved at 95 Bathurst Street (though I liked that kitchen a LOT more).

But I love the rest of this house.

I really like how they kept some aspects of the old house.  And I like how they kept the master on the first floor with the kids' bedrooms upstairs.

And I really like that they kept the feel of some of the rooms like the family room.  Here is is before...

And here it is now...

Overall, I really like what they have done and I love that they didn't tear it down to build another stone facade new build.

In 2012, it was listed at $2,795,000.

I'm not sure what it sold for but it is now back on the market.

The asking price is...

$6,890,000.
