Tasteful Victorian elegance in the heart of Parkdale! Set on an impressive 25.8 x 163 ft lot, this beautifully restored and renovated detached home built in 1888 is filled with charm, character and generous living space. Its enchanting front porch, reclaimed from a century farmhouse, opens to a welcoming foyer and gracious principal rooms showcasing soaring ceilings, original wood mouldings, high baseboards, crown and cornice detailing, ceiling medallions and French doors with bevelled and leaded glass. The inviting living room centres around a rebuilt wood-burning fireplace with a cast-iron firebox, surrounded by Victorian ceramic tiles and a handsome pine mantel. A formal dining room, renovated powder room and updated kitchen with abundant cabinetry complete the main level. From the kitchen, walk out to a unique, covered reproduction of a 19th-century railway porch, overlooking a stone patio and beautifully landscaped backyard, an inviting setting for outdoor entertaining. A beautiful quarter-cut oak staircase leads to the 2nd floor, a spacious primary bedroom with excellent closet space, a second bedroom, a separate office/den, and five-piece family bathroom with convenient ensuite laundry. The vaulted third-floor loft features a charming antique wood stove and a walkout, with exciting potential for a rooftop terrace offering CN Tower views. The finished lower level has a separate entrance and self-contained suite, ideal for extended family, a nanny or potential supplemental income.

Rates and programs change often. We will connect you with a trusted mortgage professional and build a plan that fits your budget and goals.
Estimates only, not a mortgage quote or pre-approval. Figures use Canadian semi-annual compounding, current minimum down-payment rules, CMHC premium tiers, and Ontario (plus Toronto, when selected) land transfer tax. Actual rates, taxes, insurance, and closing costs vary by lender and property. Confirm every number with your mortgage professional.
Investor snapshot
Income potential: the basement has a separate entrance, which often supports a rentable in-law or second suite. That can lift real rent well above the figure above and help carry the mortgage. Ask us about permitted use in this area.
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.
