    ๐ŸŸก 25 Duchess Avenue is positioned well for buyers who value total space over custom interior design elements.

    This sold listing at 1 Baylis St. offers a great look at what a few modern updates can do for this floor plan. While it sold for a bit more than the asking price for 25 Duchess Avenue, it featured quartz countertops and trendy grey cabinetry that give it a more contemporary feel. 25 Duchess Avenue provides more square footage for a lower price, though you are trading those high-end kitchen finishes for the extra space.

    ๐ŸŸก 25 Duchess Avenue appears fairly priced as it offers more room than this home, even if the interior finishes are a bit more traditional.
