House of the Week: $850,000 for a gutted Victorian in South Riverdale

By Fraser Abe

House of the Week: 40 Grant Street

Address: 40 Grant Street
Neighbourhood: South Riverdale
Agent: Andy Zheng, Re/Max Realtron Realty Price: $849,000

The Place: A detached red-brick house on a narrow, shady street a few blocks west of Leslieville.

Bragging Rights: A nook of one’s own. During a recent renovation, the owners turned the third-floor loft into a snug workspace perfect for working on that novel (or maybe more realistically, trolling Facebook and playing Words with Friends).

Big Selling Point: You’ll never have the common party problem of guests congregating in the kitchen since the huge wood patio out back should entice people outside.

Possible Deal Breaker: Like many properties in Old Toronto, the lot is very deep and very narrow. With the wrong decor, the house could give off a bowling alley vibe.

By the Numbers: • $849,000 • 16-foot-by-80-foot lot • 10-minute commute to downtown • 4 bedrooms • 2 bathrooms • 1 wireless, built-in speaker system • 1 Jacuzzi tub
