When I posted this 3+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom house on a 25 x 125 foot lot at 314 Wychwood Avenue in Humewood, I pointed out that it looked like someone liked to party.

The basement was all bar and bottles...

But has now been replaced with books...

And it has been lightened up a lot throughout the whole house.

Other than some paint and a new stove and vent hood, some tiles at the front door, a ceiling in the basement and a new set of stairs to the basement, I don't think there is a lot else that was changed.  But the lightening up of the paint makes a huge difference and makes the house feel bigger.

When I posted it in 2013, it had been listed at $799,000.  It sold for $787,000.

On Tuesday of last week, it was listed again for $1,049,000 (which at a 10% growth should have been $1,150,000).

It sold...

For $1,535,314.

Which is an 18% compounded growth or just under TWO TIMES what it sold for just 4 years ago.
