About this home
Welcome to The Shudell Cottage, a charming Toronto cottage in its own right, with the added potential to renovate, expand or explore the construction of a new custom home with a possible laneway suite, subject to zoning, approvals and permits. This characterful detached home on a prized residential street in East York. Built circa 1912, this two-bedroom cottage pairs an intimate sense of scale with a thoughtful, easy-flowing plan. A covered front verandah and steep gabled façade introduce the home, while a long central hall creates a clear progression through the interior. The primary bedroom is positioned at the front, with a versatile second bedroom farther along. At the rear, the hallway opens into a comfortable living room centred on a traditional fireplace. Hardwood floors, crown moulding and south-facing windows lend warmth, character and natural light.The adjoining eat-in kitchen features white-painted cabinetry, pale work surfaces and room for everyday dining, with the full bathroom accessed directly from the kitchen. The lower level accommodates laundry, mechanical systems and useful storage. Outside, a frame deck extends into a deep, fenced garden beneath established trees.Set on a 25-by-113-foot lot, the property is completed by a detached one-car garage with rear laneway access. A charming Toronto cottage with practical living space, inviting outdoor space and compelling long-term potential.
