About this home

Welcome to 399 Lawrence Avenue West which sits entirely above grade, feeling like a main floor unit. The apartment features a generous ceiling height, is full of natural light and includes the entire basement with its own private entrance. The space itself features a spacious living room, kitchen and bedroom large enough to fit a queen size bed. Commuters will love the unbeatable transit access: the Lawrence Avenue bus stop is right outside the front door, connecting you to the broader TTC network in minutes, with Yorkdale Shopping Centre, Avenue Road shops, and local cafes all close by. Quiet streets, mature trees, and a real sense of community make this an exceptional find in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods.
