This rarely offered Victorian on the coveted block of iconic Markham Street, North of College, in Little Italy, has it all! Currently set up as three units so you can live while renting, keep as an income-generating property, or convert to single-family home - so many options! Tons of updates, tastefully done while maintaining its Victorian charm. Main floor 1-BR + den, office space, and full dining room with open concept kitchen and living room offers lots of flexibility. Features original stained glass and millwork, a wood burning fireplace, soaring ceilings and tons of vintage character. Upper 3-BR unit features exposed brick and massive walk-out deck with views of the city. Large underpinned 2-BR lower unit has over 7 foot high ceilings and a functional layout. Must be seen!
In the Seller’s Words
This home has been the perfect place for a growing family. When we first moved in, it was just my husband and I, and we lived on the main floor while making income by doing short-term rentals on the upper unit, with long-term tenants in the basement. When we had our first daughter, we moved into the larger unit upstairs and continued the short-term rentals on the main floor. As our family continued to grow and we needed more space, we moved back down to the main floor and utilised the lower unit as our own personal in-law suite for the kids.
Things to Love
Little Italy has a wonderful and warm community vibe.
It’s such a central location, you are within walking distance to Kensington Market, Trinity Bellwoods, Bickford Park, Christie Pitts, Queens Park…
You are steps to some of the best restaurants, bars and cafes in the city; Bar Raval, Dailo, Boxcar Social, Patois, La Carnita (to name just a few).
The front porch and main floor living room get beautiful evening light that fractures through the stained glass.
The rooftop deck is the perfect space to enjoy a morning coffee.
Convenient shopping and amenities - almost everything we need from groceries, to the YMCA, to our vet and pediatrician is all within the neighbourhood.
Getting a front row seat to Taste of Little Italy!
