LISTING AGENT Bill Thom, Re/Max Realtron Realty Inc.
The Action: This detached, brick residence with an attached double garage is set on a short cul-de-sac nestled against green space abutting the highway, which drove some buyers away. Once the price was dropped just under $800,000, a bid brought the price back up to $831,000.
What They Got: Various owners renovated this roughly 60-year-old property to keep it in good working order, with a new roof, heating and cooling systems, two updated bathrooms and a sky-lit kitchen with granite counters, marble backsplashes and ceramic, rather than the hardwood, floors newly installed in the open living and dining area with a patio door.
The rear portion of the house has three bedrooms on the upper level, while the floor directly below has a family room with gas fireplace and exit to the patio, stone walkway and fenced 63-by-129-foot yard.
The Agent's Take: "It's a good area – Henry Farm," says agent Bill Thom. "It's a short walk to Bayview Village mall and the subway is right there, and it has easy access to the Don Valley, 401 and 404."
Modern appointments were also this property's calling card. "Most people in the area would have done some form of renovation, but this one was an extensive renovation," Mr. Thom states. "It's a beautiful renovation."
