AND IT WENT FOR - 40R Shaftesbury Avenue - SUMMERHILL, TORONTO
Two years ago, I posted this 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom laneway house on a 20 x 42 square foot lot at 40R Shaftesbury Avenue in Summerhill in Toronto.
It was a house that used to look like this…
It was a space that used to be a blacksmith’s shop, a horse shed, and an artist’s apartment and studio before it was full renovated by superkül after the owners bought it in 2006.
On the superkül website, the house looks like this…
It wasn’t a big house but it was a good condo alternative with outdoor rooftop space in a good neighbourhood close to transit.
When I posted it, the asking price was $1,350,000.
But what I didn’t realize when I posted it was that it had been on and off the market ‘for lease’ since 2009.
After I posted it in 2019, it didn’t sell but it was leased again for $3,400/month.
It was back on the market this past September for $1,295,000. It didn’t sell and was re-listed at the same price in November.
A little over a week ago, it was back at $1,275,000. And this time around, it sold…
For $1,275,000.
