A rare and incredibly versatile opportunity in the heart of High Park North. Set on an exceptional 50 x 150 feet lot, this substantial property offers nearly 5,000 square feet of interior living space, making it one of the larger homes in the neighbourhood. Originally built in 1914, the property was expanded with a separate rear residence constructed directly off the back of the original home - creating a unique scale and layout rarely found in Toronto's west end. Now completely gutted to the studs, the property is a true blank canvas ready for its next chapter. Whether envisioned as an extraordinary single-family residence, a multi-unit income property, multi-generational living arrangement, or a creative live/work conversion, the possibilities here are endless. Additional standout features include an oversized 2 car garage, a private driveway with parking for up to 6 additional vehicles, a separate entrance to the expansive lower level, and outstanding potential for further intensification including a garden suite or coach house configuration. The generous lot size may also offer potential for severance, subject to the buyer's own due diligence and all necessary municipal approvals. The size, flexibility, and configuration of this property create a truly unique opportunity for end users, investors, builders, and developers alike. Located in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods, just steps to High Park, Bloor Street, subway access, UP Express, GO Transit, cafés, restaurants, and local shops. A once-in-a-generation opportunity to reimagine and create something truly exceptional in High Park North.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $900/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Bloor West Village 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.
Market Position
At 28 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 Bloor West Village 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.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 8 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 Bloor West Village.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 5 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.
