About this home

Inside the home

This is a legal triplex — fire retrofitted in 2021 — with a fourth self-contained unit operating informally. All four units are currently rented, and three separate hydro meters mean tenants cover their own electricity costs. The interior condition varies widely across units. Some areas have basic laminate flooring and functional kitchens from the 2000s. Others show bare walls, exposed conduit, and no floor finish — significant work is needed before these spaces meet a higher rental standard. The original front staircase and porch are the clearest nods to the home's 1906 roots. The lot is large, with two driveways, a detached shed, and a fenced yard — assets for a rental property. Rail tracks are one block east, which is a factor worth noting for tenant retention. One unit will be vacant in late August, giving a new owner a starting point for improvements.

  • Legal triplex with fire retrofit completed 2021
  • Three separate hydro meters — tenants pay own electricity
  • Large lot with two driveways and detached shed
  • Original wood staircase with period detail intact
  • Fully tenanted — immediate rental income
