House of the Week: $3.6 million for a six-bedroom spread in Rosedale

Bragging Rights: Upwardly mobile families looking to be close to some of the city’s top schools (including Branksome Hall, Rosedale Junior Public School and Mooredale Preschool) will love this home’s location in the heart of the Rosedale Valley.

Big Selling Point: This house has almost too much room to spare. Aside from the six bedrooms, there’s a generous family room next to the kitchen, a huge dining room that seats ten, and a kitchen with two separate islands.

Possible Deal Breaker: The buyer of this property may need to set aside some extra cash for upgrades to the second and third floors, which haven’t been updated to match the home’s modern living areas. At Rosedale prices, though, what’s another couple hundred thousand dollars?

By The Numbers:

• $3,649,000 • $20,023.71 in property taxes (2015) • 5,500 square feet • 1,636 square foot basement • 6 bedrooms • 5 bathrooms • 4 fireplaces • 4-car parking • 3 storeys
