About this home

73 Elm Grove Ave is Queen West's Best Kept Secret. This neighbourhood doesn't need an introduction. World-renowned, trendsetting, the vibe that everyone else is trying to copy and hiding just off its edge is a rare piece of Victorian real estate that quietly does something rarer than trendy: it prints money and looks incredible doing it. Here at 73 Elm Grove, a stunning 4-unit Victorian with an attached garage - because your vintage Porsche deserves better than street parking and more upside than you've seen in years. The main level is the owner's unit, and it's an exceptional one: a 2-bed, 2-bath home with huge principal rooms full of charm and character, a powder room, a full spa-inspired bath, and two king-sized bedrooms. The kitchen is massive, built around an island, with a walkout to your own New York-style outdoor hangout. Live here, collect income from the rest - an opportunity you didn't think existed at this price point. Upstairs: a 2-bed, 1-bath unit, a 1-bed, 1-bath unit, and a third-floor loft-style bachelor that's the stuff of tenant dreams. The kind of space that draws the exact renter you want, with movie/ good book flair. The location is a stone's throw from Queen West itself - Saint James Coffee, Craigs Cookies, The Rhino, the Gladstone and Drake Hotels, TTC access, and a long list of Toronto landmarks you'll never tire of name-dropping. Downstairs, a clean, open walkout basement, a blank canvas, ready for your architect and contractor to reimagine. Few properties build this kind of excitement. Rare style, rare charm, rare opportunity all in one awesome Queen West address.
