Description & details

A rare offering in Toronto's coveted Cabbagetown, this distinctive three-storey townhouse brings together beautiful design, generous proportions and an artfully curated aesthetic. Rich in personality and thoughtfully appointed throughout, the home balances expressive style with understated sophistication. 3 bedrooms above grade, perfectly laid out with a versatile lower level that can be used as a guest bedroom or extra family room. Well-appointed rooms offer inviting spaces for entertaining and everyday living, while large bedrooms provide exceptional comfort. The primary bedroom retreat is a private haven, offering a peaceful escape at the end of the day. Outdoors, a serene, low-maintenance garden creates an intimate setting. Tastefully composed and truly one of a kind, this is a home for those who appreciate interiors with character and a style all their own.

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