Renovator's Opportunity at Dundas & Carlaw - 3 Bed, 2 Bath in South Riverdale (Riverside-Leslieville) Calling all renovators, investors, and visionaries: a great opportunity to own a 2-storey freehold home at a condo price! This 3 bed, 2 bath home is a true handyman special ready for your renovation and brimming with upside in one of East Toronto's most sought-after pockets. Inside, generous principal rooms boast warm wood floors, decorative crown moulding, and separate living and dining areas. Brand-new 2026 bathroom in basement. Three well-proportioned bedrooms sit above, and the unfinished basement is a blank canvas to finish to your taste. Out back, a fenced yard awaits your vision. Recent updates include a 2017 roof. The A/C was replaced in 2010 but rarely used as the house is naturally cool in the summers. Steps to Leslieville and Riverside's celebrated shops, cafés, and dining along Queen East and Gerrard, with the 506 Carlton streetcar, Broadview Station, and the future Gerrard Ontario Line station at Carlaw all nearby. Anchored by the multi-billion-dollar East Harbour redevelopment and ongoing waterfront revitalization, the area is positioned for exceptional long-term growth. Quick connections to the DVP, Gardiner, and Lake Shore. Bring your contractor and your imagination-opportunity like this rarely lasts.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $663/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Leslieville's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Leslieville 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.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Leslieville properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $3,037 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
Let's See It Together
Photos only tell part of the story. During our showing, I'll point out things the camera doesn't capture: neighbourhood feel, natural light quality, traffic noise, and overall condition. I'll also share what comparable homes have sold for and help you craft a winning strategy if you decide to move forward.
