32 Gothic Ave #1

If you’re thinking of downsizing your home but not yet ready to leave your ‘hood, this vast 1544 square foot condo apartment is the perfect place to write your next chapter. With a feel more like a ranch-style home or bungalow, the home has its own private entrances meaning no elevators or other common areas. Condo life with no social distancing required.

This exceptional space shows its pedigree at every turn. The craftsmanship, evident in the hardwood floors, wainscotting, trim and hardware, perfectly complements the character of the building. Originally built in 1889, this structure has stood watch over the High Park neighbourhood for 130 years. 

Of course, you now have the luxury of a gourmet kitchen with GE Profile appliances, including gas stove, quartz countertops and large eat-in kitchen island. There are two huge bedrooms, each with ensuite, and there is a pantry in the main living area that could easily be converted back into a powder room. 

Then there is the wrap-around terrace. With FIVE french door walkouts – yes, there are FIVE walkouts (one from each bedroom, the living room, kitchen and dining area) – this area is truly beyond compare. Step out any number of doors into the fresh air. Tend a garden, enjoy your morning coffee in the morning sun and entertain al fresco, all with the simplicity of life that comes with condo living.

You will also enjoy ensuite laundry, and parking right outside the door in one of the most-loved neighbourhoods in the city (Toronto Life voted it the best in 2019!). With just seven units in this converted Victorian mansion, Gothic Heritage Estates is more like a community than a condo building.
