In a Toronto neighbourhood where houses on average sell for $1.4 million and more, finding a home for almost half that price feels too good to be true. 54 Morberly Ave. is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom semi-detached house just steps from the Danforth, and it's listed for only $799,000. One reason the home might be listed for so low is that they want to incite a bidding war. An aerial shot of the house and property. Which, in most neighbourhoods, is not a thing that's happening right now. But the Danforth is one of the few neighbourhoods that is still seeing overbidding. The living room with a fireplace. The other reason this house might be listed well below the neighbourhood average is because this is the first time the home has been listed in decades, according to the listing, and likely needs a lot of work. The dining room. Don't get us wrong, the house does have some things going for it, like a good layout and lots of natural ligh...
