House of the Week: $2 million for a modern family home with a surfeit of balconies
By Fraser Abe |
By Fraser Abe |
Address: 593 Soudan Avenue
Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant East
Agent: Reza Afshar, Coldwell Banker Terrequity Realty Brokerage
Price: $1,990,000
The Place: A modern, five-bedroom new-build near Mount Pleasant and Eglinton.
Bragging Rights: Each of the four upstairs bedrooms has its own balcony.
Big Selling Point: The master suite is the perfect sanctuary for weekend mornings (until the kids start banging on the door, at least). It has the home’s largest balcony and a sky-lit bathroom with a shower large enough for two (or more!).
Possible Deal Breaker: The backyard could stand to lose the two plastic lawn chairs and gain a few more plants. Luckily, you won’t have to think about that until spring arrives.
By the Numbers:
• $1,990,000
• 25-foot-by-149-foot lot
• 5 bedrooms
• 5 bathrooms
• 1 garage
• 0 previous residents

The eyesore of my neighbourhood!
Eyesore? It looks like a beautiful modern home!
How very uninspired. I thought I would like this house and found it so uninspired. Now it could just be the decorating or the items in it, but how very lacklustre it was. I was disappointed in it.
