Overlooking Trinity Bellwoods Park, this beautifully maintained & updated century home presents a rare opportunity to own a 4 unit income property in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods. Set on a wide 24.5ft lot in the heart of Queen West, 79 Gore Vale features 4 self-contained suites, incl. 3 spacious 2-bedroom apartments & a fully renovated, underpinned 1-bdrm lower-level suite w/ high ceilings, private entrance, French doors, & stunning kitchen centred around a large island. The main, second, and basement suites will be vacant on possession, creating exceptional flexibility for investors & end-users alike.

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.
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 7 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 4 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 $6,663 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
