Welcome to 283 Booth Avenue, everything you love about Leslieville wrapped into one dream package. A meticulously rebuilt charmer tucked away at the quiet end of Jimmie Simpson Park, it's the kind of home where friends will want to pop by to say hello, and where priceless family memories will be made. Step inside and a sense of stillness is apparent, because not only were the floors fully updated in 2022, but the subfloors as well, right down to the joists. This means no loud creaks or wonky spots, just a solid step underfoot. At the west facing window a six-seater dining table fits in just right, showcasing sun-dappled views of the park across the street. Handsome white oak stairs (2022) anchor a living area that feels just as breezily relaxing as your favourite cafe. From there, a main floor powder room (yes!) and laundry area precedes a very smartly laid out kitchen, a goldilocks arrangement where space and storage are abundunt and yet everything remains within reach. Walk out to a cottage-worthy backyard, a majestic canopy of trees overlooking a spacious deck and winding garden path. From morning coffee to evening barbecuing-what more could one ask for? The deep 115 foot lot means that the 2-car parking (yes!) feels neatly tucked away. Upstairs a king bed friendly primary bedroom faces west over the park, along with two good-sized secondary bedrooms and a crisp and clean bathroom. Trees and greenery form the view in all directions. Downstairs is your ideal rec room space, with ample storage and additional laundry. The nuts and bolts of the house have been carefully attended to, with new furnace, AC, and tankless water heater (all owned); new siding (at both rear and side); and 240v electrical service to the rear, all done since 2022. This is Leslieville at its peak, a happy melding of city life and nature that is next to impossible to duplicate anywhere else.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1163/sqft, this property is priced above the Leslieville average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
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.
Townhouse Benefits
Townhouses offer an excellent balance of space and maintenance. You get more room than a condo with lower upkeep than a detached home. Key things to verify: whether it's freehold or condo-titled (affects fees and rules), and the condition of shared walls for noise considerations. Townhouses in Leslieville have shown strong appreciation as families seek more space.
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 $5,329 (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.
