Some homes advertise "near the park." This one has Greenwood Park as its front yard. Step outside and you're immediately in it - skating in the winter, swimming in the summer, baseball diamonds, splash pad, wide open green space. From May to October, the Leslieville Farmers' Market pops up every Sunday morning and becomes part of your weekly rhythm. No planning required. It's just there. Inside, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath semi feels warm, stylish, and thoughtfully cared for. The front mudroom handles real life - coats, backpacks, sports gear - before you even step into the comfortable living and dining areas that flow naturally for everyday living or hosting friends. Upstairs, the renovated bathroom is crisp and modern, and the primary bedroom is impressively sized - easily fitting a king bed with space to spare. And yes, the CN Tower isn't just a peek... it's a proper view from the front of the home and bedroom. Out back, summer is ready for you. A newly built deck and stone patio create an inviting outdoor setup for long dinners, quiet mornings, and evenings under string lights. The important updates are done: roof (2023), new A/C (2024), new furnace (2025), new dishwasher, and newer washer and dryer. Move in and enjoy. Then there's the neighbourhood. Maha's for one of the city's most celebrated brunches. Lake Inez for dinner. Gio Rana's Really Really Nice. Left Field and Rorschach for craft beer. Conci for coffee and croissants. Lambo's Deli, Jules Bistro's Tuesday steak frites, Tatsuro's brunch, Sanagan's Meat Locker, The Pantry - and Little India just up the street for a spontaneous food crawl. 185 Greenwood Avenue offers something rare: a home that feels grounded and comfortable, paired with a location that just makes everyday life better. You'll love the house. You'll never get tired of what's outside your front door.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $1000/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Leslieville market conditions. The pricing suggests the seller has done their homework. We may have modest room for negotiation, typically 2-4% in today's market.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 95 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Leslieville. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
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 $4,583 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
