This is a 4+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom semi with 2 parking spots on a 17.5 x 129 foot lot at 701 Shaw Street just south of Bloor in Bickford Park in Toronto.

It is a house that looked like this a year and a half ago…

It was listed at $898,888 and it sold for $1,550,000.

It was then completely gutted (there wasn’t a lot of charm to save) and they did a really good job.

It doesn’t feel very wide but the kitchen is a good size with good living spaces and bedrooms with lots of storage.

The basement can be rented out and the laneway apparently has potential to build.

Overall, it is a good move-in-ready house (that maybe needs some curtains at the front).

It is now listed at…

$2,399,000.

P.S. Like the bedroom in the basement at 68 Astley Avenue…

The before photo of the basement in this house…

Is giving me some serious Ruprecht’s bedroom vibes.
