104 Argyle Street - BEACONSFIELD VILLAGE, TORONTO
It was a recently renovated semi around the corner from this 4+1 bedroom, 7 bathroom house with a detached 2 car garage at 104 Argyle Street in Beaconsfield Village in Toronto.
Two months after that house sold in March 2019 for $1,485,800, this detached house that used to look like this…
Went on the market for $1,999,888 and sold for asking.
It was then completely redone by Batay-Csorba Architects, the same people behind the houses at 60 and 60A Melbourne Avenue in Parkdale that were for sale in 2017…
I definitely prefer this house to those houses as this house seems to have a little more personality and feels more high end.
The wood work is impressive. I prefer these floors and kitchen (which is huge). The basement is bright with those floor to ceiling windows (interesting idea). And it overall shows better.
But like the Melbourne houses, a lot of people have been commenting about the price of this house and how it is…
The asking price for this house is $6,600,000.
But based on the sold price for the house at 166 Lisgar Street that just sold for $4,400,000…
Is it?
That house was a semi with 60% of the square footage of this house. So, does it not make sense that the sold price would be 60% of what this house would sell for?
Like, if Lisgar sold for approximately $1,353/square foot (based on a square footage of 3,250 because the listing says 3,000-3,5000), why wouldn’t this?
And, by the way, if this house were priced at the same rate per square feet, this house would actually be listed over $7,000,000.
So, why did Lisgar sell in 1 day and this has been on the market for over a week?
Maybe people can’t wrap their head around that price in this neighbourhood because if you look at the comments for the Lisgar post, some people are shocked by the $4.4 sold price as well.
So, $6,600,000?
Perhaps it’s just too much to contemplate.
