A furnished three-bedroom semi with a backyard facing the Rosedale ravine.

The history

The house was built in 1889, and its Victorian exterior has been preserved. There are new kitchen appliances, and all of the bathrooms have in-floor heating. The current tenants are returning to their home in the High Park area, which was under repair. The new tenant’s lease will start in August or September.

Here’s the foyer:

Major perks

It’s just on the edge of Yorkville, so posh neighbours and nearby boutiques and restaurants are a given. Plus, the house is on a dead-end street, which means minimal traffic—potentially a good thing for families with young children.

Possible deal breaker

There’s no on-street parking, so the tenants have to use underground parking a short walk around the block.
