Rental of the Week: $2,100 per month for a tiny house in the east end

Address: 170 Hiawatha Road
Neighbourhood: Greenwood-Coxwell Agent: Roger Martins Group, Real Estate Homeward, Brokerage Price: $2,099 per month

The place

A 100-year-old one-bedroom semi near Little India.

The history

The house was built in 1913. The current owners bought the place in 2012 and lived there for a few years before deciding to rent it out. The last major renovation was around 1993. There have been some recent upgrades, though, including a new kitchen backsplash, new appliances and new flooring.

Here’s the living and dining area:

The backyard is narrow but long:

Major perks

The unique layout and location give the home character. The property is on a slope, so the basement has a ground-level exit to the backyard through the master bedroom:

Upstairs, the living and dining areas have access to a raised wooden deck:

Plus, the house is on the same street as Equinox Holistic Alternative School, which might be attractive to parents who want a non-traditional learning environment for their kids.

Possible deal breaker

The rent isn’t huge, relatively speaking—but neither is the house. Bigger families will need to look elsewhere.

By the numbers

• $2,099 per month • 900 square feet • 2 bathrooms • 1 bedroom • 1 skylight • 1 deck
