House of the week: 5 Jedburgh Road
Here's a bit of real estate eye candy near Yonge and Lawrence. A newly built two level residence at 5 Jedburgh Road is one of many modern knock-downs that now dot the elite Bedford Park neighbourhood. The asking? This one's listed for a cool $1,739,000.
Who needs a fireplace when your house is made of wood? The wood-themed dwelling blends nicely from the cubed exterior to the open interior, boasting similar materials and a chestnut kitchen. The oversized wood doors and ceilings make it feel spacious, along with generous room sizes and a walk-in closest.
The housing market in mid-town is a pricey one, especially in this area, geared for families and an older generation. With limited post-war bungalows still standing (and there are just a few), the lot itself is still worth well over a million.

GOOD FOR
Plenty of storage. Purchasing a brand new house allows for additional storage, a front closet and custom built-ins. Plus, you get four sizeable bathrooms, which you don't get in a typical century old Toronto residence.
MOVE ON IF
You need additional privacy or a garage. While the yard is completely fenced-in, the property is located on a corner lot and backs onto a high-traffic street.
Worth the asking? Have your say in the comments.
