Quiet garden setting in the center of Toronto, a 5 min walk to metro/subway, grocery, banks , churches and restaurants -everything!
Our ground floor apartment has a large deck in a big yard facing lush trees, a ravine and the historic Mt.Pleasant cemetery. We have seen deer, foxes, raccoons and small wildlife in our backyard, truly amazing in the middle of the city.
Our home is a perfect central location for visiting Toronto, you won't need a car (but we have parking).
Toronto is a great starting point to explore eastern Canada and the US. It is home to Caribana, the largest Pride Parade in the world, The International Beaches Jazz Festival - and we just hosted the PanAm Games. Close by is home to the Canadian Lake/Cottage Experience in Muskoka and the Kawarthas. Prince Edward County is about 2 hours east. New York and Chicago are about 9 hours by car, Montreal 6.
The Space
Sunlight streams into large windows in each room and the spacious dining/living area is excellent for unwinding after a day of sight seeing or just relaxing. Two bedrooms plus an office that could be used as a third bedroom. Large living/dining area with open kitchen. The building is 1950s but has been renovated and is in a very quiet in a safe central neighbourhood.
We have updated several rooms, new pictures will follow.
