This bright, two-level main / upper 1-bedroom, 2-bathroom suite near Yonge & Sheppard is set inside a recently upgraded freehold home. The main level is open and airy, with plenty of room to host friends, set up a proper dining area, or just stretch out after a long day in front of the wood burning fireplace. Clean laminate floors, recessed lighting, and built-in storage keep everything feeling modern and uncluttered.The kitchen is a standout - white quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, marble floors, and a cozy breakfast nook that's perfect for slow mornings with coffee. It opens right onto your own private deck, where you can unwind, BBQ, or enjoy a bit of green space under mature trees - something that's hard to come by in the city. There's also a convenient powder room on the main floor. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a true retreat, with triple mirrored closets and a refreshed 4-piece ensuite. It's quiet, private, and nicely separated from the main living space - ideal for working professionals or couples who want that balance between home and work life. Located just a short walk to Sheppard Station, with quick access to downtown, an easy drive to the 401, plus parks, cafes and restaurants on Yonge, and everyday essentials all close by.

How this lease stacks up against the local rental market
Estimated Monthly Budget
Things to Confirm Before Signing
· Are utilities included, or separate?
· How many parking spots are included?
· Is the landlord open to a 1-year or 2-year lease?
· Are pets and small renovations (paint, hooks) allowed?
· When was the last rent increase, if there is a prior tenant?
Utility estimates are approximate and vary by season, habits, and what the landlord includes. Always confirm inclusions with the listing agent.
Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Above Market Rent
At $2,650/mo, this is asking above the typical 1-bedroom rent of ~$2,300/mo in Willowdale. That premium needs to be justified — newer finishes, included parking, a premium location, or utilities included. I'll help you assess whether it's worth it or whether there's room to negotiate.
Market Position
At 33 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Willowdale are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
Let's Walk Through It Together
Photos can't tell you about traffic noise, natural light at different times of day, or how well the landlord maintains the property. When we view it together, I'll assess the condition of appliances, HVAC, and finishes — and flag anything that might become a headache. I'll also help you understand the lease terms before you sign anything.
