Typically, when a house is listed for under $1 million in Toronto, it’s either derelict, run-down or just plain weird.
Finding a detached home that you can actually move into and live in without a hefty price tag is basically impossible.
But that’s not entirely a rule, because one cute little home at 30 McIntosh St. is defying all expectations of a house in Toronto’s competitive market, listed for just $750,000.
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow is a treat.
Although, you wouldn’t know it just by looking at it from the street.
It’s a typical post-war bungalow with a deep front yard and red brick exterior.
As you enter the home, you’ll find yourself in the small living room with a gas fireplace and hardwood floors.
On the main floor of the bungalow, there are two bedrooms, including the primary and a den that’s being used as an office.
The rooms are bright, although not super spacious.
The bathroom on the main floor has plenty of storage and a cool leaded window for privacy.
While not super modern or trendy, the kitchen is classic, and the checkered tiles are a nice touch.
The basement is partially finished, with a recreation room and an office. It also has a separate entrance, just in case you wanted to fully finish it and rent it out.
But the thing that makes this house spectacular for its price point is the breathtaking sunroom addition at the back of the house.
The spacious room is a four-season space that boasts a solarium accented by dark, rich wood beams and hardwood floors.
Honestly, I would never leave this room.
The other thing 30 McIntosh St. has going for it is the lot size, which is a spacious 46- by 125-foot lot.
Additionally, the listing mentions that there’s potential for a garden suite as the home backs onto a separate street.
All in all, 30 McIntosh St. seems almost too good to be true, which probably means it will get snapped up quickly and go for way over asking.
