Significant space, flexibility, and a location that puts the best of East Downtown at your doorstep. This oversized 1-bedroom + den was originally a 2-bedroom + den and can easily be converted back, offering a rare opportunity to adapt the space to suit your lifestyle. The current open-concept layout feels exceptionally spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing sunny south-facing treetop & partial lake views. The custom kitchen is designed for people who actually cook, with high-end appliances, stone counters & thoughtfully designed cabinetry with pull-out storage. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the main living spaces; stylish, durable & refreshingly easy to maintain. The King-sized primary bedroom enjoys beautiful southern views & a generous closet, while the luxurious 5-piece bathroom makes a statement with a double vanity, built-in mirror, wall-mounted storage cabinetry & striking porcelain tile across the walls, floors & feature wall. Storage is abundant throughout, including a large utility/laundry closet. And then there's the neighbourhood. Step outside and you're surrounded by some of Toronto's best-loved destinations: Crombie Park, St. Lawrence Market, the Distillery District, Sugar Beach, Harbourfront, East Bayfront, Corktown Commons & Biidaasige Park, with the future Corktown Ontario Line Station nearby.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $700/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.
Market Position
At 20 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.
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. The $1053/month fees should cover building insurance, common elements, and reserve contributions.
Efficient Living
At 800 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.

Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Cabbagetown properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $2,333 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
