Say hello to this wonderful opportunity in one of Toronto's most desirable neighbourhoods, Leslieville. This home boasts a large two-storey addition, featuring an incredible kitchen and primary bedroom, both equipped with custom-built-ins that maximize space and style.
The back of the house is lined with wall-to-wall, high-quality European windows on both floors, flooding the home with an abundance of natural light. The main floor features hardwood floors, pot lights, and an open-concept layout, though it does require some minor drywall repairs.
The primary bedroom is so spacious that your family could comfortably sleep there while renovating the other two bedrooms, which are currently in need of some work, as they still have lath and no plaster.
The unfinished basement offers great potential and is ready to be transformed to your liking. On the south side, the home has been recently waterproofed with weeping tiles for added peace of mind. Other updates include a newer hot water tank, furnace, and roof coverings (both flat and peaked), all less than 5 years old. The home also features a 1/2 inch copper service line. A home inspection report is available upon request.
There is a laneway at the back of the property that is accessible from Dundas. Many households have created private parking solutions. It is worth taking a walk.
This property offers immense potential to create a home that fits your vision in a top-tier location. Walk score of 88—with shops, restaurants, and transit nearby. Just a few blocks away is Greenwood Park, which offers a fantastic Sunday farmer's market, skating rink, pool, playground, dog park, and baseball fields. Plus, it’s only an 18-minute drive to downtown!
This is truly an exceptional opportunity to enter one of the city's best areas.
Leslieville is one of Toronto's most charming and sought-after east-end neighborhoods. Nestled between the Don River and Coxwell Avenue, just south of Gerrard Street and north of Lake Ontario, it's a vibrant mix of historic charm and modern cool.
Originally a working-class village with deep roots in the film and manufacturing industries, Leslieville has undergone a major transformation over the past two decades. Today, it's known for its indie boutiques, hip cafés, craft breweries, and a strong sense of community.
The main strips along Queen Street East and Gerrard Street are lined with everything from artisanal bakeries and stylish brunch spots to vintage shops and yoga studios. It’s a walkable, dog-friendly area filled with tree-lined streets, Victorian and Edwardian homes, and mid-rise condos that blend old and new.
Families are drawn to Leslieville for its excellent schools, abundance of parks (like Greenwood Park and Jimmie Simpson Park), and proximity to the beach. It also has easy access to downtown Toronto via streetcar, making it popular with young professionals and creatives.
In short, Leslieville offers a cozy, neighbourhood feel without sacrificing the conveniences and energy of urban living.
