87 Olive Avenue - SEATON VILLAGE

This is a 3+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom semi on a 15 x 100 foot lot at 87 Olive Avenue in Seaton Village.

And it is basically the same house as the Blair Witch house at 829 Manning Avenue...

But unlike that house...

This house does not give me the heebie jeebies.

In fact, it is a good, charming house.

It could benefit from new floors on the first floor, perhaps a new bathroom, new windows, and some updating in the basement.

But it is also a move-right-in house in a popular neighbourhood.  There is just no parking.

The house at 829 Manning Avenue that needed a full gut was listed at $639,900 in 2014.  It sold for $629,000.

In 2015, this house was listed at $739,000 and looked like this...

Three years after the Manning house sold and 2 years after this house last sold after being listed at $739,000, with a new kitchen, this house that is move-right-in is now listed at $998,000.

Assuming it sold at ask in 2015, that is a 16% increase.  But considering it probably sold closer to $800 something, this asking price is probably a little low.

So, I'm going with $1,100,000...maybe a little more.
