Cross Streets: Queen and Bathurst. ** Directions: One way north from Queen. With its soaring ceilings, this light-filled, classic Victorian Bay & Gable home has been lovingly renovated while restoring and enhancing all its original architectural character. Gorgeous crown mouldings, bannisters, hardwood floors, period details and reconditioned antique light fixtures blend seamlessly with new Marvin double hung, wood sash windows; exquisite wood French doors leading to a new deck w/glass overhang and a garden teeming with perennials and a wisteria-covered pergola. The electrical wiring has been replaced & updated to 200-amps. New plumbing with two tankless hot-water heaters & a new furnace (2026). The grand main floor with its double-sized living room and gorgeous bay window adjoins a separate but open dining room perfect for hosting large dinner parties. The new chef's kitchen features quartz countertops, an induction cooktop w/retractable downdraft exhaust and custom shelving. There are two new fully tiled bathrooms with in-floor heating, curbless showers w/rain showerheads, and a full-size clawfoot tub. The second floor features a large family room/workspace (converted from two bedrooms) plus two other bedrooms, one overlooking the garden and downtown (you can actually see the CN tower) and a modern design bathroom with a cathedral ceiling. The large, private third-floor suite includes changing and sitting areas (sellers have a quote for an ensuite bathroom $30K) The entire house has been meticulously painted in period colours that enhance and blend impeccably with its modern updates. The double garage has been divided into 2 spaces, one insulated for year-round use as a workshop and the other for bicycles with loft storage. A quick afternoon with a sledgehammer will allow this space to accommodate two cars. There is also a separate potting shed. All of this in the vibrant and highly desirable Trinity Bellwoods neighbourhood steps to the cultural energy of Queen Street West and two future Ontario line stops. City living at its best!
