This renovated, restored, grand Victorian home was on this year’s Cabbgetown Tour of Homes, says listing agent Daniel Bloch. Featuring a third-floor private bedroom with an ensuite, this semi-detached home sold in less than a week for 108 per cent of the listing price.

“It is very rare to find a Victorian home in such amazing condition with so much care to details and restoration as this one,” says Bloch. “It also has an uncommon two-car garage. “The third floor loft would be perfect as an office. The house boasts high ceilings, news wood floors, renovated bathrooms and a new deck.”

It is walking distance to the TTC, shops, parks, restaurants, schools and Allan Gardens. Main floor has: living room with crown molding, French doors and hardwood; eat-in kitchen with granite counter, sunroom.
