for one household, with multiple living spaces, spacious bedrooms and room to gather, work, entertain and retreat. The entire home can be reclaimed for your family, or a separate lower-level suite could be maintained for added flexibility. With fantastic ceiling height, the lower level feels like genuine living space rather than a typical basement. The existing configuration also works well for extended family or multigenerational living without making the home feel divided.Outside, the backyard offers valuable open space in the city-a blank canvas for a garden, play area or private urban retreat. A welcoming covered front porch, private upper terrace and garage parking off the laneway complete the package. Set south of College Street and close to the neighbourhood park on Shaw, the home is surrounded by the energy of Little Italy, Trinity Bellwoods, Ossington, Dundas West and Queen West. Restaurants, cafés, independent shops, schools, transit and everyday conveniences are all within easy reach. This is a rare opportunity to create a substantial family home that reflects the way you want to live while preserving the beauty and soul of a classic Toronto Victorian. (id:62650)
