Rarely does a downtown investment of this calibre come to market. Introducing 276-278 Crawford St - two side-by-side freehold multiplexes on an extraordinary 50-foot frontage on one of Toronto's most storied streets, in the heart of Trinity Bellwoods. Together, these income-producing assets comprise 11 separate residential units, 2 laneway-fronting garages, and 5 parking spaces - a compelling blend of scale, stability, and long-term upside in a location where demand rarely lets up. This is the kind of asset sophisticated investors wait for: best-in-class residential income in one of the city's most coveted neighbourhoods, steps from Trinity Bellwoods Park, Ossington's celebrated retail corridor, and the restaurants and energy of Little Italy. A proven address, top-tier tenancy appeal, and irreplaceable urban positioning make this a rare opportunity to secure a meaningful foothold in prime downtown Toronto. In a market where true trophy multiplexes are few and far between, Crawford doesn't just check boxes - it sets the bar.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $800/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.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 54 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Downtown Toronto. 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 Downtown Toronto 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.
Excellent Flexibility
With 10 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Downtown Toronto.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 6 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Downtown Toronto properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $8,333 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
