This four-bedroom bungalow in Smythe Park has ‘sparkly’ new renovations. Will it sell near the asking price of $800,000?

A black-and-gold, floor-to-ceiling custom fireplace mantle is immediately visible once you enter. The fiery design even matches the marble floor in the front foyer.
The narrow ground level is open concept with light hardwood floors and wood slat wall panels interspersed through the home. All the rooms are connected by a central hallway with white walls.
Frodyma said the owners did a good job with picking finishes that are “really in right now, like 2024 style,” adding that he likes the white oak flooring.
The living room and dining room lead straight into a gourmet kitchen. There’s plenty of counter space that bleeds into a breakfast bar for casual meals as well as new stainless steal appliances and a custom backsplash.
Frodyma believes anyone looking to buy this home is probably an end user, which he said is someone that has no intentions of making it into an investment property and plans to live in the house themselves.
“They’re probably looking at younger professionals looking to upgrade from a condo or smaller property or possibly someone looking to downsize from a larger home,” he said.
There’s more wood slat panels in both bedrooms, covering the entire wall floor to ceiling. The primary bedroom has a window overlooking some greenery on one side and a large mirrored closet on the other. There’s enough space to manoeuvre around the room even if you opt for a big bed. 
Although Frodyma doesn’t think it will be an investment property, the fully finished basement can serve as an independent apartment, as it has two bedrooms, one bathroom and a separate entrance to go with the modern feel.
