Description & details

Some homes hold a family. This one has held three generations, and after more than 55 years it is coming to the market. This home sits in the heart of Little Italy, close to all amenities, with a vibrant lifestyle right outside your door. Step outside and College Street is all yours, with its cafes and bakeries, its restaurants and patios, its shops and the streetcar, part of the daily rhythm here. This home tells a story in every room, of Sunday dinners and birthdays and ordinary days made golden, and it is waiting for another family to make their memories here. Lovingly cherished through all of those years, the care shows in every corner. 9.5-ft soaring ceilings on the main and second floors fill the rooms with light and give the whole home an open, airy, bright feel. This is an extra large home with 1,852 square feet on three levels, plus the finished basement: four levels of finished space in all. Room for a growing family and for generations under one roof. It is a registered duplex, so the possibilities are endless. Each level has had a kitchen, although the main floor kitchen is no longer there, but you can restore it and rebuild the previous rear entrance. The basement was lowered for extra height and has separate front and rear entrances, offering privacy for extended family or a home business, plus great income potential. This is not your average home in the area. Configure it the way you want, renovate to suit your taste, modernize and shape it to your own lifestyle. It is a canvas waiting for your personal touches. Whether you keep it as one grand family home, use it as a multigenerational home, build potential income, or potentially create a triplex with a few adjustments, this home bends to the life you want to live in it. This is the kind of home that comes along once in a generation. An amazing opportunity, with an abundance of space in a location that offers a lifestyle. Come see it, and make it all your very own.

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
