LISTING AGENT Sheree Cerqua, Sutton Group-Bayview Realty Inc.
The Action: A handful of bids were submitted for this roughly 80-year-old residence, which sits on a spacious 42- by 115-foot lot on a quiet crescent near Sunnybrook Park in Leaside.
What They Got: Four years ago, renovations were done inside this 1½-storey house where there is a fireside living room and a central dining and kitchen area with a granite-topped island, a Juliet balcony and stainless-steel appliances, including a gas stove.
Across the rear, there are two bedrooms, including one with a walkout to a deck and secluded perennial garden.
The third bedroom is located on the second floor above the garage.
A separate side entrance leads down to a lower level bedroom and recreation room with above grade windows, as well as one of two four-piece bathrooms.
The Agent's Take: "I was pretty confident I would have more than one offer because it's a storey-and-a-half and it's renovated, so it would appeal both to end users and builders," says agent Sheree Cerqua.
"There are very few bungalows and even fewer storey-and-a-half [houses]left in the city."
