About this home
Exceptional opportunity to own a legal detached duplex in one of the area's most desirable, established neighborhoods. This solid masonry-built property features two self-contained units plus a basement, making it an ideal investment opportunity or an excellent choice for owner-occupants looking to offset their mortgage with rental income. Showcasing the quality craftsmanship of its era, the home offers three separate entrances, beautiful hardwood floors, original wood doors, and durable plaster walls. A detached double-car garage with convenient laneway access provides ample parking and additional value. Investors will appreciate the potential to add a future laneway suite (subject to municipal approvals), creating an opportunity for additional rental income and long-term appreciation. The flat roof was re-shingled in 2023, providing added peace of mind. Ideally situated in a mature, established neighborhood close to transit, schools, parks, shopping, and everyday amenities, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a legal income-generating property with excellent future upside in a highly sought-after location.
