High ceilings, custom kitchen cabinetry on both floors with premium kitchen appliances. Custom built-ins throughout and A/C on the main and second levels add to the home's appeal. Multiple walkouts connect to a private, fully fenced backyard oasis, while the finished basement offers an additional bathroom, bar area and recreation room. A second-floor deck provides even more outdoor space. Enjoy exceptional walkability to College, Dundas and Queen West, with Little Italy, Little Portugal, The Annex and Queen West all nearby.
