House of the Week: $1.5 million for a west-end home with a deck and a hot tub off the master bedroom
By Fraser Abe |
By Fraser Abe |
Address: 7 Weatherell Street
Neighbourhood: Runnymede-Bloor West Village-High Park North
Agent: Julie Kinnear, Royal Lepage Real Estate Services
Price: $1,495,000
The Place: A newly renovated three-story home with a finished basement at the edge of bustling Bloor West Village.
Bragging Rights: A top-to-bottom overhaul earlier this year added a raft of trendy features: an open-concept great room with 15-foot ceilings, a floating oak staircase, energy efficient LED potlights and wide-planked oak hardwood floors.
Big Selling Point: The 330-square-foot deck off the master bedroom boasts a hot tub roomy enough for four (you can single-handedly try to resurrect the key party!).
Possible Deal Breaker: The backyard has leafy trees and—rare for the area—a private driveway with parking for four, but little in the way of grass. Great for lazy mowers, not so great if you’re looking to get a game of bocce going.
By the Numbers:
• $1,495,000
• 2,790 square feet (including the lower level)
• 330-square-foot deck
• 4-person hot tub
• 4 bedrooms
• 4 bathrooms
• 1 detached garage
• 1 built-in intercom system

oh man. I really pity the neighbours.. what an odd looking home as it certainly does not belong on this street.
Pity the owners–biggest, most expensive house in neighbourhood.
Yes and it is three doors down from a school, very close to busy Jane Street and the traffic and parking on the street are a nightmare Good luck to the dumbass who pays this much for this eyesore.
Even the house looks shocked at how expensive the house is #iseefaces
I think we just found our new estate in the westend of Toronto, Ontario, eh ! Who needs to mow the lawn anyway, eh. This home has everthing that my son and myself would want in our new home. It all counts on Winning the $30,000,000 Lotto Max this Friday evening, eh ! And we be off to the races, eh. I just can’t wait to hold the deed in our hands after purchasing this lovely estate. Finally, our dream home come true for the both of us to fulfill our life style in a nice looking neighbourhood, eh. The price is just perfect for the perfect buyer ! Best that I have seen on the House Of The Week. It shouldn’t last to long on the realestate market.
It sure is different from the old neighbours but still gorgeous…and
hardly the biggest or most expensive in the hood–there are mansions
side by side right on the other side of Jane.
llcoolj – Not sure they will care what street parking is like with a 4-car driveway.
Street is only 1 block long, how bad can traffic be?
Sounds like a lot of sour grapes…
And I suppose you’d like regulation to make all homes sterile and boring just to please YOU, right?
