DAYS ON THE MARKET Two

LISTING AGENT Nutan Brown, Royal LePage West Realty Group Ltd.

The Action: When it hit the market, this stately three-storey house was one of only two available on this short crescent street in Baby Point. It sold to the first house hunter to step inside.

What They Got: This 86-year-old structure on a 75-by-170-foot lot has a centre hall plan with five bedrooms, five bathrooms and both formal and casual entertaining areas, plus a detached double garage.

There are fireside living and family rooms, a formal dining room and office with hardwood floors, as well as a custom kitchen with slate floors, island and walkout to a covered portico, south-facing deck and fenced-in yard with gardens and mature oaks.

The largest bedroom is a second-floor master suite with a walk-in closet, fireplace and bathroom, while one of the smallest is on the lower level off a recreation room with a wet bar and fireplace.

The Agent's Take: "The presentation was really lovely, it had been nicely updated over the years … and added a main-floor family room, open-concept kitchen and powder room, so it checked a lot of boxes of what people are looking for," agent Nutan Brown says. "It's a nice combination of an older home with modern updates."

The outdoor living space was another perk. "It also has a beautiful setting overlooking a ravine-like [area]," Ms. Brown says.

"The timing [of the sale] was great – the garden was starting to bloom, so everything looked lush and green."
