House of the Week: $750,000 for a Little Portugal row house with the perfect artist’s garret
House of the Week: $750,000 for a Little Portugal row house with the perfect artist’s garret
Address: 34 Collahie Street
Neighbourhood: Little Portugal
Agent: Helen Van Rooy, Century 21 Leading Edge Realty Inc., Brokerage
Price: $749,000
The Place: An airy row house from the 1870s in the trendy neighbourhood near Dundas and Dufferin.
Bragging Rights: The backyard, though small, contains a mature blossoming cherry tree and cozy nooks ideal for summer cookouts. You’ll never have to lug blankets and beers to nearby Trinity Bellwoods again.
Big Selling Point: The current owners—who love the house but have outgrown it—put a ton of work into it, which means there won’t be a long list of maintenance issues to tackle after moving in.
Possible Deal Breaker: The cute attic, with its two sunlights and reclaimed oak flooring, can only be accessed by a ladder. Fun for the spry, but it may be a pain for those with less physical prowess.
By the Numbers:
• $749,000
• 138 years old
• 10-minute walk to Queen Street
• 3 bedrooms
• 2 skylights
• 1 attic
• 1 bathroom
• 1 blossoming cherry tree
