About this home

Full of character and charm, 60 Elm Grove is a beautifully renovated family home in the heart of Parkdale, one of Toronto's most-loved neighbourhoods. A classic slate roof sets the tone from the street, and the welcoming front porch is made for slow summer afternoons with a glass of lemonade.Inside, the open-concept main floor pairs soaring coffered ceilings with mosaic tilework throughout. It's a thoughtful renovation that keeps the home's warmth and architectural detail while making everyday living easier. The kitchen has been redone with high-end appliances and an apron-front sink, and a main-floor powder room adds convenience. There are three bedrooms, one currently set up as a custom-built home office, plus an elegantly updated bathroom.Walk out to your own private backyard, perfect for morning coffee, gardening or entertaining friends. And there's parking, a rare find in Parkdale.You're steps to Queen West's cafés, restaurants, shops and bars, minutes to the lake and the Waterfront Trail, with the TTC right at your door. A fabulous home with real soul, in a neighbourhood that has it all.
