While average home prices in Toronto have, seemingly, begun to stabilize over recent months, it still feels nearly impossible to find a home in the heart of the city at a good price; but this home, priced at just over $1 million, is flipping the script.
Newly updated and located just steps from Queen Street East and a local school, 6 Vancouver Avenue is living proof that great things actually can come in affordable (for Toronto, that is) packages.
Charming only just barely begins to describe this cozy two-storey semi-detached home, which, touting a white brick facade on the exterior, maintains a contemporary rustic look throughout, with elements such as hardwood flooring complimenting perfectly the open-concept floor plan on the main level.
The main floor.
Upon entering, one is greeted by a spacious living space, which is accented by a rustic wood-panelled fireplace. The ground floor invokes an immediately welcoming energy.
The dining room.
The spacious, 130 sq.ft. dining room connects seamlessly to the rest of the main floor, boasting ample space for a comfortable dining set, and a powder room, making it an ideal space for families or entertaining.
The kitchen.
The kitchen is a home chef’s dream, featuring a gas range, stainless steel appliances, a double oven and direct access to the mudroom and backyard, all wrapped up with playful accents like a hexagonal tile backsplash and a chalkboard wall.
Backyard.
The backyard itself, which is completely fenced in (dog parents, rejoice!), is an easily maintainable yet still-sublime refuge, which offers ample opportunity for additional landscaping or the addition of patio furniture for al fresco dining when — at long last — the summer comes.
A bedroom.
Upstairs, a total of three bedrooms provide homey stays for all, each offering their own bright, spacious and playful character.
The primary bedroom.
The 160 sq.ft. primary bedroom is a truly sweet refuge, with lofty ceilings and a bright bay window that floods the space with natural light.
The bathroom.
The second floor is serviced by a spa-like bathroom, replete with stylish finishes that look ripped straight from the pages of a home design magazine, like the stark white subway tiling that covers the shower and beyond.
Third floor.
Up on the third floor, bonus space offers ample opportunity for conversion into whatever you could possibly dream of: additional bedrooms? Check. A rec room? Check. Home office? You bet!
