Last February, I posted a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house on a 23 x 150 foot lot at 125 Torrens Avenue in Pape Village in Toronto…

From the exterior, you wouldn’t expect to see what was on the inside but it was a really well done ‘Japandi’ house. Or as the listing said, ‘a hidden gem’.

This house has a very similar feel on the inside though I am not sure if it was done by the same person. But the front showed a lot better even if you aren’t into this style.

And this house shows really well on the inside with a full tree in the living room and second floor. But, I’m a little confused with some design ideas like the open bathrooms in a couple of the bedrooms…

This is an image looking into a bedroom from the door. The bathroom is completely open! Right at the bedroom door!!!!

I don’t get it.

It’s not like they couldn’t have built a wall and had a proper door going into the washroom or at least a barn door. But the good news in that case is that if you do like this house but not the open washrooms, I think it is possible to close those off.

If I’m wrong, that might be why this house has been sitting now for 2 weeks.

This is a 4+1 bedroom, 5 bathroom house with 1 garage and 4 parking spots on a 32 x 105 foot lot at 46 Virginia Avenue in East York in Toronto.

It used to look like this in 2013 when it sold for $543,000…

It was then torn down and replaced with this house that sold in 2019 for $2,08,880 after being listed for $1,500,000.

It is now on the market for…

$2,700,000.
