165 Aberdeen Avenue, Hamilton, Ontario
I remember looking at this house when we were selling our second home about 4 years ago. It sold  for  $399,000 back then. It was always a nice house but the current owners have upped the ante big time. This stunning Georgian has undergone an extensive renovation including  a 2-storey addition at the rear, lush landscaping, a brand new kitchen, updated bathrooms, and an exterior face lift with awnings and the addition of a vestibule and curvy concrete stairway.  I'm pretty sure this house has  a huge unfinished attic space too if my memory serves me correct. The property also has the bonus feature of a long side driveway plus garage off of Hess St South. This is one of 3 twin houses built on what  was the original lot for the large white Queen Anne Victorian on the southeast  corner of Queen & Aberdeen.

I  am a bit surprised to see this go for sale as  it looks like the current owners put a lot of personal passion into the place. Its definitely not a flip.  My guess is they are cashing in on the RED HOT southwest market. The house immediately west of 165 Aberdeen sold for over $500,000  about a year after this one first sold, so its obvious this one would sell for more than that.  But $899,900! That's crazy! But then again 146 Aberdeen is asking $789,900 so from that perspective - not so crazy.  My guess is that #167 Aberdeen will be following suit shortly after...they actually "discussed" selling to us when we were selling our 2nd house 4 years ago.
