Few South Bayview denizens make it into the heart of Junctiondom and fewer still onto little lanes like Jerome Street. But thanks to 12.36, the Monday to Friday news giggle, we have learned that this 112-year-old curious home is for sale. It’s a terra cotta house near Dundas and Dupont (which) can be yours for a million bucks. Patterned tiles were all the rage in the late 19th century, and they could be had cheaply in 1905, when J. Turner Sr. built 20 Jerome Street, possibly as a way of advertising his construction business.” As these remarks suggest, few will have ever heard of 20 Jerome much less that it was priced to sell for almost nothing. Someone grab it.
