Description

Welcome to this exceptional red-brick Victorian semi-detached home on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Harbord Village, one of Toronto's most desirable and walkable downtown neighbourhoods. Thoughtfully updated with high-end finishes, the residence blends timeless architectural character with contemporary luxury living. High ceilings, exposed brick, and a bright open-concept layout create an expansive feel, while a distinctive design expands the footprint toward the rear for generous living space throughout. Each of the four bedrooms offers its own elegant ensuite bathroom with heated floors. The third-floor primary suite is a true private retreat, complete with a walk-out to a serene outdoor deck ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The custom kitchen is outfitted with premium Miele appliances and abundant thoughtful storage, making it perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The basement features a separate entrance and kitchenette, providing flexible space for a recreation area, guest suite, or additional living quarters. A rare downtown advantage is the two-car carport accessed directly from the laneway. Nestled in Harbord Village-also known as the South Annex-this home sits steps from the University of Toronto's St. George campus and benefits from the neighbourhood's vibrant yet residential character. Mature trees line the streets of heritage Victorian homes, while Harbord, Bloor, and College Streets offer an outstanding array of cafés, restaurants, bakeries, and specialty shops. Excellent transit is at your doorstep, with Spadina and Bathurst subway stations nearby along with frequent streetcar and bus service. Within a short walk you'll find Kensington Market, Little Italy, the Annex, Yorkville, top-rated schools, hospitals, and some of the city's best cultural and dining destinations. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy sophisticated living in one of Toronto's most sought-after central communities.
