About this home

Inside the home

This 1900-built semi has been converted into two separate above-ground units, each with its own kitchen, laundry, and entrance. The upper unit runs 810 sq ft across two bedrooms and a den, with stainless appliances, a renovated bathroom, and a Victorian staircase with original carved millwork. The lower unit is larger at 976 sq ft, with a spacious kitchen, one bedroom on the main floor, and a finished basement rec room. Both units have been recently updated with new laminate floors, fresh paint, and new cabinetry. Individual hydro meters are already in place. The side entrance steps for the lower unit were still under construction at the time photos were taken — confirm completion status before firm offers. The property is currently vacant. At the listed price and an advertised 8.8% cap rate, this is squarely positioned as an investor buy, though owner-occupancy of one unit is equally viable.

  • Two fully separate above-ground units with individual laundry
  • Individual hydro meters
  • Upper unit has stainless appliances and updated bathroom with vanity lighting
  • Finished basement adds usable rec room space to lower unit
  • Original Victorian staircase millwork preserved in upper unit
  • Fenced backyard
  • Separate entrances for each unit
  • Both units vacant — flexibility for owner-occupier or investor to set rents
