This is the kind of rental that reminds you why people fall in love with Roncesvalles. Set within a beautifully restored character home, this distinctive suite combines the scale and architectural details of an older Toronto house with the thoughtful updates and conveniences you actually want for everyday living. Professionally restored back to the bricks, the interior is filled with character, including gleaming hardwood floors, high ceilings, oversized windows and carefully preserved historical details throughout. The marble and stainless steel kitchen includes a walk-in pantry, giving you excellent prep and storage space, while a full-sized den provides a proper separate room for working from home, reading or creating additional flexible living space. A wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character, and private ensuite laundry keeps everyday life convenient. Outdoor space is another standout, with a private balcony plus access to a huge fenced backyard, giving you considerably more room outside than you'd expect from a city rental. Two private entrances add another level of independence, while driveway parking and tons of storage are particularly valuable extras in this neighbourhood. Step outside and some of the best of Roncesvalles is within easy reach, from the independent shops, cafés and restaurants along Roncy to High Park, the lake and excellent local schools. Getting around the city is easy too, with the subway, 501 and 504 streetcars and GO Transit all nearby. The home has also undergone fire and sound retrofitting and is pet and child friendly. Spacious, beautifully restored and surrounded by everything that makes this neighbourhood so desirable, this is a rental with the character, outdoor space and practical conveniences to truly feel like home.
