The condo for sale at 41 Spruce Street

Address: 41 Spruce Street, Unit 2 Neighbourhood: Cabbagetown Agent: Richard Silver, Sotheby’s International Realty Canada, Brokerage Price: $939,000

The place: A large townhouse a quick walk away from Riverdale Park West and the Don River.

The history: From 1871 to 1903, the building was the Trinity College Medical School. At the time, Toronto General was located next door. In the 1970s, the building was converted into condominiums. The complex consists of just 11 units.

Big selling point: Spanning four levels, with four bedrooms and five bathrooms, this home is large, especially by townhouse standards. Its graceful details—the beautiful arched door leading to the backyard, the rooftop deck and the cute red-brick exterior among them—are just bonuses.

Possible deal breaker: Anyone looking for sleek, modern bathrooms may need to seek out newer developments—but good luck finding a new-build with such a modest price-per-square-foot.
