Address: 25 Oxley Street, Townhouse 3
Neighbourhood: King West
Agent: Nick Whittington, LoftStyles.com
Price: $954,900

The place: A townhome in a 16-storey building, with a balcony and plenty of storage space.

The history: This eight-year-old unit was originally rented to a member of the Toronto Raptors, but has mostly been lived in by the current owner and her student-aged daughter, who is heading off to study in the Caribbean. The owner made plenty of upgrades after the baller moved out, including a kitchen revamp and the addition of some custom closets to make extra room for boots and shoes.

Big selling point: The home has a private garage right behind the kitchen, which is not only convenient, but also provides an extra level of security.

Possible deal breaker: Both the front and back windows look across at other condos. Good thing the unit comes with motorized blinds.
