About this home

This is a well located, bright and renovated second floor apartment above a popular local restaurant. It is a great minimalist living space, well suited for an on-the-go professional(s) or on-the-go lifestyle. Lake Shore Blvd W is steps from the main (side) entrance, providing quick TTC access, and surrounded by an abundance of local businesses and amenities. *Second bedroom may be best suited for an office or even a main living space, since the unit as a whole is pretty snug, but that is for you to decide. Municipal parking lot nearby, street parking, and all of the benefits of a New Toronto address.
