The 135-year-old pioneer home of the Elgie family at 262 Bessborough Drive has been placed on the open market with an asking price of $3.7 million. The agent is Jerry Hammond of Hammond International Properties. Those interested in such things will be able to calculate how builder Matthew Garnet has done. He purchased the home and land in 2013 for $2.5 million and subdivided the land to ultimately build a home on either side. The process was no doubt expensive. Preservationists objected to the new homes (they lost) and to moving the house closer to the street (they won). At the time, The Bulldog called this an odd bit of “heritage punctilio” Thanks to Ann Brown of Leaside Chit Chat for bringing this to our attention.
