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

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:
The kitchen has a wine cooler:
There’s a gas fireplace in the living room:
The solarium is attached to the living room:
There’s only one bedroom up here, but it’s pretty impressive:
Here’s the bathroom:
These stairs lead to a giant rooftop terrace:
There’s plenty of outdoor space for relaxing:
There’s also a hot tub:
And a sauna:
This is one of the main-level apartments:
There’s a one-bedroom unit and a studio on the main floor. This is the bedroom in the larger unit:

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.
