149 Blantyre Avenue - FALLINGBROOK, TORONTO (10 Comments)

This is a 3 bedroom, 4 bathroom house with 1 parking spot on a 23.36 x 122.01 foot lot at 149 Blantyre Avenue in the Fallingbrook neighbourhood in Toronto.

When I saw it, I realized that I had seen it before and according to the listing, it has been featured in Dwell Magazine (with a few of those shots I think included below) and the Globe and Mail.

It's a house that was designed by Williamson Chong Architects, the same people who were behind the house on the other side of the city at 8 Ridout Street in Roncesvalles...

Both houses have a lot of wood, this one inparticular.

And if you are okay with this much wood...

Than you will love this place.

Buuuttttttt.....

You need to be okay with not having a living room on the first floor.  The first floor of this house is ALL kitchen except for the 'sunroom' that has the red chair.

But if that is good with you, this is an award winning house in a good neighbourhood east of the city.

It seems though that people might not love the second floor only living room because this house has been listed for a while.  It was initially listed at $2,295,000.

The price has now been dropped to...

$2,075,000.

That's a good drop.  But will it be enough?
