The Place

An attractively priced two-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Old North.

The Details

Finding a home in the much-sought-after Old North need not cost a fortune, as this week’s listing, a 1.5-storey two-bed, two-bath home on Cheapside Street can attest. It has a charming curb appeal and a modest footprint, while offering buyers an affordable single-family home in one of the most desirable neighbourhood destinations in the city.

Much of the charm of this home is evident from the curb. It has a classic brick exterior, with a vibrant front garden in front of a shaded porch overlooking a grassy front yard, and the entire home is just brimming with a classic Old North style.

Inside, you’ll find a layout that is practical and comfortable, with distinct living spaces throughout. The main floor boasts refinished hardwood flooring, and includes a living room and TV den toward the front of the house, separated by classic French doors. The kitchen features tile flooring and backsplash, gas stove and a nook area that works well as a coffee bar. There’s a good amount of cabinet storage and an eat-in dining space to the side of the kitchen. There is also one of the home’s two bedrooms on the main floor ― a small secondary suite that overlooks the front porch.

The upper level of his home houses the primary bedroom, featuring a window view of the front yard. There’s also a second space offering a range of potential uses ― it might be perfect as a home office or hobby room, a large walk-in closet, a dressing room or as a space away from the rest of the home ― a quiet place in which to escape and unwind.

The home features a finished lower level with fireplace. You could use this room as home office, rec room, TV room, extra sleeping area or more. The downstairs also includes an additional bathroom, laundry facilities and ample storage space.

One of the real selling points of this home will be its gorgeous ― and surprisingly large ― backyard. There’s a stone patio just off the kitchen, which is surrounded by landscaped garden beds full of perennials and lush greenery, ideal for anyone with designs on doing some backyard vegetable gardening or those who just want to garden for its aesthetic pleasures. Beyond the patio, you’ll find a charming little patch of green space, big enough for kids or pets to run around in. Also in the backyard is a wood-burning oven, opening up a whole new world of cooking possibilities for culinary enthusiasts. And finally, the backyard features a detached garage with hydro, and would make an ideal project room, detached studio or workshop.
