Former Toronto Mayor Rob Ford's house is up for sale in Toronto on Tuesday June 5, 2018
The late Rob Ford’s home is now on the market — but it comes with a hefty $2.5 million price tag.
Last month, a mysterious sign went up on the late mayor’s lawn at 223 Edenbridge Dr. — in the Scarlett Rd. and Eglinton Ave. W. area of Etobicoke — indicating “Rob Ford’s house for sale” with a phone number attached.
According to media outlets, the listed phone number goes to a voicemail box that says it belongs to Ford’s widow Renata, who filed a $16.5 million lawsuit against her brother-in-law, Premier Doug Ford and his brother Randy Ford, in June.
The lawsuit accuses the two Ford brothers of breach of trust, conspiracy and “negligent mismanagement” of Deco Labels, the family business. Both Doug and his mother Diane have said in statements that Renata Ford’s claims are “baseless.”
Ford died of a rare cancer on March 22, 2016. According to the National Post, neighbours said Renata and their two young kids moved out a week before the sign went up.
When contacted by the Sun on Tuesday, Renata Ford confirmed she was responsible for erecting the sign, but declined further comment.
Her original sign has since been replaced by a ReMax sign.
The listing on MLS describes the 80 x 118 ft. property as a “signature address when only the best will do.”
“Surrounded By James Gardens on two sides, 80-ft. frontage pie-shaped lot. Fully reno’d family home With total privacy in backyard. Only one neighbour rear sloping yard suitable for (walkout) basement,” the ad says. “Move-in family home, build your dream home on this once in a lifetime location.”
The agent overseeing the property, Mike Donia, did not return calls on Tuesday.
