House of the Week: $1.1 million for a quirky, vine-covered row house in Yorkville
Address: 22 Belmont Street
Neighbourhood: Yorkville
Agent: Boris Kholodov, Royal Lepage/J & D Division, Brokerage
Price: $1,088,000
The Place: An 1890s Yorkville row house renovated in 1965 by architect and historical preservation advocate Joan Burt.

Possible Deal Breaker: A somewhat unusual floor plan has the kitchen and dining room on the lower level.

This house has been listed for a year and a half!
Initially listed at $1,250,000 in February 2012!
http://themashcanada.blogspot.ca/2013/02/22-belmont-street-yorkville.html
Ya, its called Marketing.
The house of the week is Marketing and is paid for by the agent/home owner.
old listing for sale for over a year, you have to be an idiot to pay this price or close to it
I like it! If my price range went that high I might buy it.
It looks like a house in LA with a quirky actor living in it.
