About this home

Little Italy Cool on Coveted Crawford Street! This seriously stylish, architecturally reimagined home pairs Scandi-inspired minimalism with an unbeatable downtown vibe. Renovated back to the studs with permits, it delivers oak floors, high ceilings, natural light and a chef's kitchen with quartzite countertops and a gas stove. Gather around the fabulous wood-burning fireplace, then head upstairs to your west-facing lounge deck for golden-hour hangs. The deep soaker tub and wall-mounted towel warmer bring a little everyday luxury. Out back, enjoy a private hangout with teak decking, gas BBQ hookup and CN Tower views. Two bedrooms and one bathroom above grade, plus an underpinned, finished lower level with 8.3' ceilings, a full bath and separate walk-out entrance. Thoughtful upgrades and extensive insulation add comfort behind the cool. Set on a leafy, storybook street just steps to the indie cafés, buzzing patios, restaurants and shops of Harbord and College, with parks and TTC nearby. Urban living, neighbourhood soul. This is Crawford Street at its best! OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY & SUNDAY | 2-4 PM
