A little over a week ago, I posted this 3+1 bedroom, 1 bathroom house with a 2 car garage on a 26 x 133 foot lot at 124 Marion Street in Roncesvalles in Toronto.

It was a house that looked very familiar to me but I couldn’t place it until I saw this painting…

And I realised it was the home of current House and Home’s Editor-in-Chief and former Marion House Book blogger, Emma Reddington.

It had last been listed in 2008 for $587,000 and sold for $670,013.

Since then, the front was repainted, the kitchen had been redone, and it looked like a garage was built in the back, not to mention new paint inside.

It was listed at $1,600,000.

It sold after a week on the market…

For $1,915,000.
