Four sliding glass doors. Southwest exposure. Sixth floor. The result is a loft that gets a ridiculous amount of light. But it's the long view that changes how the place feels. From up here, your eye gets to travel across the treetops and rooftops of Leslieville and out toward the CN Tower. Green in the foreground, city in the distance, and a horizon that gets particularly good around sunset. Inside, the layout makes good use of every square foot. The kitchen is big enough for two people to actually cook together, with a gas range, plenty of storage and a huge island that inevitably becomes the centre of everything. Dinner prep, morning coffee, laptops, friends hanging around longer than planned. The primary bedroom comfortably fits a king-sized bed with room to spare. The second bedroom works equally well for guests, an office, or both. And when the weather cooperates, the balcony becomes another room, with a gas hookup for the BBQ and the skyline as the backdrop. Downstairs, you're on Carlaw in the middle of Leslieville. Nutbar and Mercury Espresso for coffee. Ricky + Olivia and Wynona for dinner. Corduroy Lounge for a drink. Bobbette & Belle and Craig's Cookies when you need something sweet. Hone Fitness is on the same block, Queen Street East is just down the street, and transit, parks and pretty much everything else you need are close by. And that transit is about to get even better. Two future Ontario Line stations, at Jimmie Simpson Park and Gerrard and Carlaw, are both less than a 10-minute walk away. But for all the reasons to leave, this is a pretty good place to stay home. Especially around sunset.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $879/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Leslieville 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.
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.
Condo Considerations
For condos, I always review the status certificate thoroughly. Key things I look for: reserve fund health (should be well-funded), any upcoming special assessments, rules that might affect your lifestyle (pets, rentals, renovations), and the corporation's financial statements. We'll want to verify the monthly fees and what they include.
About South Riverdale
I know South Riverdale well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
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 $3,663 (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.
