In the fall of 2016, I posted this 4+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom semi on a 17 x 118 foot lot at 223 Crawford Street in Trinity-Bellwoods.

It’s a house that used to look like this when it was listed a little under a year earlier…

As flips go, I liked it but there were some issues.

I wasn’t crazy about the stair placement or the exposed brick. And I wasn’t crazy about the fact that the house overlooked the John Gibson House parking lot instead of the park as suggested by the listing…

Otherwise, it was a good house.

It was listed at $1,798,000. It sold for $1,765,000.

A little over 3 years later and it is back on the market with a new rooftop deck and a shed in the backyard creating some privacy from that parking lot…

At an 8% annual compounded interest, the asking price would now be apporximately $2,300,000.

The asking price is…

$2,498,800.

How much do you think that shed and deck cost?
