House of the Week: $2.6 million for an eclectic beach house with four units

Address: 43 Woodbine Ave. Neighbourhood: The Beaches Agents: Matt Casselman and Ben Ferguson, Re/Max Hallmark Realty Price: $2,598,000 Previously sold for: $700,000 in 2007

The place

An eclectic beach house with exposed brick, industrial accents and three stand-alone units (not including the owner’s suite) to rent out.

The history

The home was built in 1920 and renovated top-to-bottom in 2007. The reno included the addition of a rooftop deck to the upstairs suite.

Here’s the top-floor unit, which is where the owner lives:

Big selling point

Aside from being a good investment property, the owner’s suite is completely decked out with vaulted timber ceilings, a gas fireplace and a 442-square-foot rooftop terrace. If the hot tub and infrared sauna aren’t enough, the house is directly across from the beach, so the new owners can easily pop over for a dip in the summertime.

Possible deal-breaker

The owner’s suite only has one bedroom, so guests will have to sleep on the couch.

By the numbers

• $2,598,000 • $7,647.18 in property taxes • 3,700 square feet (1,601 in the owner’s suite, including the deck) • 5 bedrooms • 5 bathrooms • 2 parking spaces • 1 rooftop deck • 1 hot tub • 1 sauna • 1 gas fireplace
