House of the Week: 370 Berkeley Street

Address: 370 Berkeley St.
Neighbourhood: Moss Park
Agent: Joseph Robert and Gillian Oxley, Royal LePage/J & D Division, Brokerage
Price: $1,495,000

The Place: A restored Victorian row house in Cabbagetown that was originally built in 1885.

Bragging Rights: The home is a classic example of an inner city Victorian, and its period-friendly updates have landed it in the pages of Style at Home.

Big Selling Point: A smart layout makes the 19-foot-wide lot feel spacious: every bedroom has an ensuite and there are three communal living areas.

Possible Deal Breaker: Historical details, like leaded glass windows and plaster mouldings, are preserved on the main floor. Much of the home’s character disappears, however, once you go upstairs.
