The irregular lot makes for a big backyard:

The history

The home was built in the early 1990s. The lot is irregularly shaped, and it’s a little larger than most others in the area. The buyers can enjoy the large backyard or, possibly, expand or replace the existing structure.

Big selling point

The street is circular, which limits outside traffic.

Possible deal breaker

The current owner is in his late eighties, so the interior of the house reflects North Toronto’s high-end trends of a few decades ago. It may require some updating, depending on the tastes of the buyers.

By the numbers

• $2,800,000 • $7,780.98 in taxes (2016) • 3,600 square feet • 5 bedrooms • 5 bathrooms • 2 parking spots • 2 fireplaces
