High Park-Swansea, Toronto · MLS® W13212256
About this home
A rare opportunity to build on one of Toronto's most coveted streets in the heart of High Park-Swansea. This vacant 50 x 77 ft lot offers a genuine blank canvas in a neighborhood where the majority of existing homes are heritage-designated and cannot be redeveloped - making opportunities like this exceptionally hard to find. Located in Ward 4, Parkdale-High Park, the property falls within one of only nine wards in Toronto where up to six residential units are now permitted as-of-right under the City's updated zoning by-laws, with building potential of up to four storeys including basement. Up to four units are permitted as-of-right citywide. Development charges are waived for up to six units - a saving of over $200,000. No rezoning required. Buyers to conduct their own due diligence regarding applicable zoning standards and permitted uses. Previously prepared architectural and structural drawings by a Professional Engineer are available to qualified buyers, along with a topographic survey. Potential for a double-car garage. No parking minimums apply under current multiplex regulations. Steps to Roncesvalles Village, High Park, TTC subway access, and the waterfront. Catchment for Howard Junior Public School and Fern Avenue Junior and Senior Public School.

Heads up: the asking price here sits well above what comparable listings suggest. That can point to premium finishes, a bigger lot, or simply an ambitious ask, so it is worth a close look before you offer. I would not put an automatic figure on this one. Tell me you are interested and I will pull the most comparable recent sales and give you a straight answer on what it will really take.

Affordability & Mortgage
Income needed assumes a ~32% GDS ratio; weekly is mortgage principal & interest only. Price ÷ income is the home price over the income needed. Fixed reference assumptions so listings compare on equal footing, not a lending decision.

Investor snapshot
Thinking of this home as an investment? We will pull real comparable rents and run the full numbers with you.
Talk about the numbersEstimates only. Rent is modelled on above-grade size and local norms, so a finished basement or second suite (a separate entrance often means one) can push real rent well above this. Taxes, fees, and vacancy vary by property, and cap rate is before financing. A starting point, not a final number, let us run the real ones with you.
