6 Wellesley Place #3
A Home That Feels Like a House, Without Leaving the Core
Send This Listing To A Friend6 Wellesley Place #3 is what happens when downtown living grows up. This isn’t a condo townhouse. It’s a freehold home in downtown Toronto designed for privacy, independence, and location-conscious buyers who want space without condo compromises.

-
Freehold ownership in the downtown core
-
A low monthly fee for snow removal and shared upkeep.
-
3 full levels of private living with your own front door
-
Walkable to Wellesley Station, groceries, and dining
-
A quiet street you’ve probably never heard of—but wish you had
Tucked into the gated community of Massey Estates—just steps from Church Street and minutes to Yorkville, Yonge & Bloor, and the Village—this rare freehold townhouse offers a refreshingly grown-up alternative to high-rise life. No elevators. No $1,000/month maintenance fees. No generic finishes or endless rules. Just thoughtful design, real space, and the kind of ownership that feels like a step forward, not a sidestep.
Inside, the layout just makes sense: an open-concept main floor with wide-plank oak flooring, a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counters, and—yes—a powder room for guests (because no one should have to climb stairs just to wash their hands). Upstairs, two full-bedroom suites mean privacy for you, your guests, or your growing family. Each bedroom has its own walk-in closet and ensuite, so it feels like a boutique hotel (but better, because it’s yours).
Then there’s the rooftop. Composite decking, city top views, and enough room to dine, lounge, and host in style. It’s the bonus living space you’ve been missing—ideal for morning coffee, after-work wine, or a quiet breath of fresh air above the city buzz.
This isn’t a flip. It’s a home that’s been cared for and upgraded with intention—from the tasteful, high-end renovations to the low-maintenance POTL structure that takes snow removal and landscaping off your plate. Also, the roof is new as of November 2024, so lots of peace of mind.
And let’s talk about the location: Massey Estates is a quiet pocket in one of Toronto’s most iconic, inclusive, and walkable neighbourhoods. Steps to transit, groceries, parks, and nightlife. Close to the hospitals, the university, and the financial core. The kind of place where neighbours say hi, and Pride is a front-porch celebration.
If you’ve outgrown condo living but aren’t ready to give up the pulse of downtown, this is your answer. Real ownership. Real space. Real pride of place.
5 Things We Love
1. It’s Not a Condo (But You Still Get the Perks). This is freehold living with none of the headaches. You own the space—inside and out—but still enjoy conveniences like snow removal and landscaping. No elevators, no board drama, no surprise assessments. Just you, your home, and a little peace of mind.
2. Two Bedrooms. Two Ensuites. Zero Compromises. No awkward layouts, no guest-overload tension. Both bedrooms are real rooms with real closets and their own private bathrooms. Whether it’s a roommate, a guest, or a growing family—everyone gets their own space.
3. The Rooftop Terrace is a Vibe. Think skyline views, composite decking, and enough room to actually entertain. It’s the bonus outdoor space most downtown homes can only dream of—perfect for early-morning lattes, sunset hangs, or quiet solo time above it all.
4. Real Living. Real Flow. The main floor is made for real life—not just for showings. Wide-plank oak floors, a modern kitchen that’s actually functional, and a main floor powder room (finally!). It’s open, it’s airy, and it works.
5. Downtown, But Make It Chill. You’re minutes from the action—Yonge & Bloor, Yorkville, the Village—but tucked away on a quiet, gated street that feels like a hidden pocket of calm. It’s the rare downtown address where you can hear yourself think.

About North St. James Town
There’s something undeniably magnetic about this pocket of the city. Maybe it’s the energy—the pulse of Wellesley, Jarvis, and Church, just steps away. Maybe it’s the people—an eclectic, welcoming mix of creatives, professionals, long-time locals, and newcomers who chose to be here. Or maybe it’s that rare downtown combo: a neighbourhood that feels alive and livable.
Living here means you’re at the crossroads of some of Toronto’s most dynamic enclaves—Church-Wellesley, Cabbagetown, Yorkville, the Village—all within walking distance. Grab your morning coffee at Rooster or Page One. Hit Allan Gardens for a dog walk or a breath of green. Hop on the subway (a literal 4-minute walk) and you’re anywhere in the city in minutes. Or don’t—because some of the best restaurants, shops, and patios are already right here.
There’s no single “type” of person who lives here—and that’s kind of the point. It’s a neighbourhood where young professionals find their first grown-up space, where couples settle in without settling down, where folks value both community and privacy. People here live with intention. They want more than a box in the sky, more than cookie-cutter. They want character. They want connection. They want room to live.
And while downtown can sometimes feel like a blur of glass and crowds, 6 Wellesley Place is a surprising pause. Tucked away, tree-lined, gated—it’s a secret street you’d never know was here. Which makes coming home feel a little more special.
This is downtown living, redefined. And for the right buyer? It’s exactly the right vibe.
