$899,000
Tucked ever so gently on one of Cabbagetown's most enchanting, tree-canopied streets lies a rare residence that tells a tale far richer than its square footage suggests. Built in 1854 as a humble worker's cottage, it now stands as a testament to timeless design and intentional living. The front garden, a true labour of love, bursts with blooms from early spring to late fall - charming and captivating from first glance. With a lot size of just 25.5 x 25 feet, this two-storey is a masterclass in elegant simplicity - low on upkeep, rich in character. Perfect for downsizers, condo-seekers, first-time buyers or anyone dreaming of a pied-à-terre in one of Toronto's most storied neighbourhoods. Inside, light dances through windows with East, South & West exposures. In the living room, oversized sash windows offer a picturesque vantage of the ever-changing front garden, while floor-to-ceiling double doors off the dining room lead to a private side patio. A glass transom above the entry casts soft, filtered light. Soaring ceilings and a custom built-in bookshelf feature wall anchor the main floor in elegance and imagination. Upstairs, vaulted ceilings add a poetic lift to the principal bedroom. A walk-in closet adds function, while the reimagined 3-pc bath w/ heated floors elevates comfort. Currently configured as an expansive one-bedroom, the layout can easily be returned to its original two-bedroom form. A second 3-pc bath completes the finished lower level - ideal for cozy evenings in. Just a 30-second stroll to beloved Riverdale Park, Wellesley Park and Riverdale Farm. Steps from cherished local spots like The House on Parliament, F'Amelia & The Epicure Shop, w/ daily essentials on Parliament. In Cabbagetown, tradition thrives, beauty endures and community is everything. With easy TTC access, bike routes and the DVP, getting around is effortless. For the romantic, the minimalist or the historian at heart- this is a rare chance to own a timeless piece of living history. (id:56248)
