418 Ossington Avenue, Toronto

Live out loud! 418 Ossington. Nearly 2,000 square feet above grade across three storeys of late 1800s Victorian character, completely reimagined for people who love the best of downtown living (hello 9 Michelin restos under a 7-minute walk).The main level hits differently. Ten foot ceilings, original plaster medallions, rich Brazilian hardwood, and a foyer built for a proper arrival - yours and everyone you're about to invite over. The living and dining rooms are impressively large and cohesive, anchored by the original exposed staircase and banister winding upward through the middle of it all. At the back a chef's kitchen with stone counters, commercial Viking appliances, open burners and a 1300 degree salamander - weeknight dinners don't need to be boring and you know it. A hotel style powder room behind the oversized wooden door rounds out the main level nicely. Upstairs: two principal sized bedrooms each with serious closet space and their own tree lined terraces. One has radiant heaters - you're not going to stop enjoying the outdoors just because it got cold. The bathroom between them was likely a third bedroom in a previous life: custom drop in tub, rain shower, double vanity, space for a water closet. It's a lot. You're welcome. Third floor: seven skylights, bedroom, office, SKY. Then the rooftop - outdoor bar with working sink and an outdoor rain shower because who needs a cottage commute when this is waiting at home. The lower level is upgraded mechanicals, a pantry, and a valuable storage area that will have every smaller home dweller rethinking their life choices - plus a blank canvas for whatever comes next. The backyard is surprisingly large, lush and PRIVATE. Built in speakers, cedar decking, 3 pane front windows, exceptional HVAC. The full package. 418 Ossington. Come get it. Neighbours willing to rent parking space :)
