About this home

Walk to the end of historic Wellesley Street and you'll find a quiet court tucked away from it all. This is 12 St James Court, and it's the kind of address you'll want to keep to yourself.This is Cabbagetown. Saturday mornings at Riverdale Farm, evening walks through Riverdale Park, and a short stroll to local shops and restaurants where people actually know your name. Transit and the DVP are minutes away, so downtown living comes without the noise.Inside, the home has been completely transformed, top to bottom. Every room was rethought and every finish chosen with purpose. The kitchen has quartz countertops and room to cook and gather, and the living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with a walkout to the deck. Hardwood runs throughout, and the electrical has been fully upgraded, so the peace of mind goes deeper than the finishes.Upstairs, skylights pour natural light across the second floor. The primary suite has a 3-piece ensuite and walk-in closet, and the second bedroom is generously sized. The finished lower level adds a third bedroom and walks out to a private backyard oasis, a rare find for downtown living.Nearly 2,200 square feet, move-in ready, in one of Toronto's most loved neighbourhoods. Some homes get a refresh. This one got a total transformation.
