Hi.

Welcome to the MASH where we gossip about current real estate listings.

Enjoy!

147 Hanson Street - THE DANFORTH, TORONTO

147 Hanson Street - THE DANFORTH, TORONTO

The first thing I thought of when I saw the photos for this 2+2 bedroom, 3 bathroom new build with a detached 1 car garage on a 20.01 x 100 foot lot at 147 Hanson Street in the Danforth neighbourhood in Toronto like this photo…

Was this…

The Umbra Fish Hotel.

It also reminded me a bit of the house at 80 Condor Avenue in the Pocket

But that one looked more like a ship than a fish tank.

This house used to look like this…

It was listed in February 2018 for $549,000 and sold for $635,000.

It was torn down and replaced with this house designed by architect Johnson Chou and was listed in October for $1,499,000. I guess they wanted more because the price was increased a week later to $1,800,000.

They didn’t get that price either and the 2 months after that listed ended, this house is back on the market for…

$1,699,000.

While it creates a lot of light, I think if the first floor had taken up the full foot print and created more interior living space instead of the courtyard balcony, that might happen. Otherwise, it feels like a lot of wasted space. Also, it needs a fence. That basement family room is great though.

P.S. Here is the walkthrough if you are interested.
