A thoughtful refresh, a functional floor plan, and a quiet address just steps from Greenwood Park.81 Billings Avenue has recently undergone a considered transformation, with new flooring, baseboards, lighting, a beautifully updated bathroom, and a brand-new deck. The interiors feel fresh and inviting, with warm finishes, natural light, and a generous living area that makes everyday life feel effortless.The layout is practical without compromising on space. An eight-foot basement with a separate side entrance offers exciting potential for a future apartment, additional living space, or a place to work from home. A garage provides valuable storage or parking, while the unusually wide mutual driveway, shared with considerate neighbours, comfortably accommodates two vehicles.Outside, the new deck creates an easy extension of the living space, perfect for a quiet morning coffee or an evening with friends.The location is equally compelling. Tucked away on a remarkably quiet street, the home is just steps from the green space and recreation at Greenwood Park. Gerrard Street's independent restaurants and neighbourhood favourites are an easy walk away, as are the fitness studios along Queen and Eastern. Multiple transit routes keep the rest of the city within easy reach.A home that balances good design with the practicalities of family life, in a neighbourhood that makes it easy to feel at home.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1427/sqft, this property is priced above the Leslieville average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
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.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Leslieville 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.
Efficient Living
At 700 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.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
