The house for sale at 334 Wellesley Street East

Address: 334 Wellesley Street East
Neighbourhood: Cabbagetown Agent: Cameron John Weir and Scott Hanton, Keller Williams Advantage Realty, Brokerage Price: $1,878,000 Previously sold for: $999,000, in 2011

The place

A century-old Victorian, near the Rosedale Valley and Riverdale Farm.

The history

Built in 1904, the home is designated under the Ontario Heritage Act, because it’s located in Cabbagetown’s heritage conservation district. This means there are some legal restrictions on the types of changes that can be made to the structure. Even so, the house has undergone significant interior renovations over the past three years.

Here’s the living room:

Big selling point

The third-floor master suite, with a five-piece bathroom, a front walkout and an oversized covered deck (and a large skylight to wake the owners up, if that morning coffee isn’t cutting it), is a relaxing retreat.

Possible deal breaker

The backyard is well manicured, but buyers may find they have to tear up the landscaping if they want to use the space as parking:
