The action
There is hardwood flooring in the open living and dining areas, as well as the central kitchen.Re/Max Hallmark Realty Ltd.
This three-bedroom bungalow has a busy GO Train line right beside it, which was a deal breaker for some buyers. But it was barely an issue for the 60 others who signed up for a tour. Indeed, a few found the low-slung property on a large 63-foot-by-200-foot lot so alluring that they bid well over the $1,299,900 asking price.
“I had a ton of showings, but just wasn’t sure how it would go because it’s right beside the railroad tracks,” agent Jenelle Cameron said. “I was taking offers at 7 p.m. and didn’t have anything registered until 6:45 p.m. Then I had six offers.
“We gave the top two people the opportunity to improve because it was too close to call, and one came back with a fair bit more than the other one.”

“It has a lot of nice touches, like [the seller] redid the kitchen, so you could move in and not have to do anything to it,” Ms. Cameron said.
“It has a great in-law suite in the basement, totally self contained, so it’d probably be easy to legalize that and rent it out.”
“It’s a really wide lot, so some people talked about subdividing it,” Ms. Cameron said.
