LISTING AGENT JoAnne Gludish, Royal LePage Real Estate Services Ltd
The Action: The Humber River is lined with parks, including Magwood Park, which is just around the corner from this semi-detached house that sold in a competition between two buyers this March.
What They Got: In the past two years, this 1950s brick residence was given several new and essential elements, including an updated furnace, three modernized bathrooms and an open dining area and kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances and sliding doors to a deck and stone patio.
Areas out in the open include a living room and lower-level recreation room, while enclosed spaces include three upper bedrooms with hardwood floors.
There is no garage, but there is a private driveway on the fenced 30-by-100-foot lot.
The Agent's Take: "It's a cute little pocket in the valley that people are liking because some properties back onto the river," agent JoAnne Gludish says.
Semi-detached homes such as this one are common in the area, but its condition was what made it memorable. "[The sellers] had done extensive renos: They put in a brand new washroom on the main floor, which in that style of house in that community is rare," Ms. Gludish says.
