The history

The fate

The buyers own another home in Toronto, which they plan on leaving to their adult daughter when they move into this one. They were attracted to the location and luxury design, which was geared towards families that love to cook and entertain.

The sale

The home was originally listed in September for $2,437,500, based off the sale price of a nearby property. It only brought in two offers, so the home was listed again in October at a discounted rate of $1,799,000 to generate more interest. After more open houses and showings, the sellers listed for a third time at $2,629,000. After receiving four written offers, they accepted one for just below their original price.
