Gorgeous wide plank Oak floors flow through the entire main and second floors. Custom built-ins have been thoughtfully integrated throughout, seamlessly combining form and function, and adding an extra layer of luxury to every room. The custom Oak staircase was built onsite just 2 years ago.The kitchen was completely renovated in 2018 and features Caesarstone Quartz countertops, high end appliances and a custom walnut coffee nook. Walk out from the kitchen to a lovely West facing deck with built-in bench seating & gas BBQ hook up. Large back gates slide both ways to access ample parking space off of the laneway. Mature trees & perennial gardens mark a lovely Leslieville setting.
Leslieville, coined as Toronto’s new Queen West, stands out as one of Toronto’s trendiest neighbourhoods. Today, it’s renowned for its eclectic mix of hip brunch spots, eateries, galleries, and shops, but its origins trace back to a small village established in 1850, when many of its residents were gardeners or brick factory employees.
The charming homes of Leslieville, dating back to the late 1800s, include Ontario Cottages, Second Empire row houses, and quaint Victorian homes. Recent upscale condo and loft developments have caught the attention of eager buyers looking to make an investment in Leslieville. The area is a haven for urban professionals seeking a distinctive neighbourhood and community.
Leslieville is also home to a piece of Canadian history: ‘The Maple Leaf Forever,’ the poetic verse and early unofficial national anthem, was composed under a tree at the intersection of Laing Street and Memory Lane. A historic plaque now marks the historical spot.
Nestled on the quiet eastside, Leslieville offers an array of cafes, vintage furniture shops, and designer stores. Residents in search of recreational activities have an abundance of choice. Among them, Greenwood Park, which boasts three baseball diamonds, an artificial ice rink, a pool, and a playground, and Ashbridge Park, which features tennis courts, children’s playground, and wading pool. Residents also enjoy access to the S.H. Armstrong Community Recreation Centre and Gerrard/Ashdale Public Library.
