OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY MAY 31st 1:00-3:00pm!! Location, location, location!! Set on a large corner lot in the sought-after inner-city neighbourhood of Thorncliffe, this lovingly maintained 3-bedroom bungalow is full of charm, character, and opportunity. Proudly cared for by its original owner, the home showcases a blend of timeless touches and thoughtful updates throughout. The bright main floor features a welcoming living room with a cozy corner gas fireplace, while the functional layout offers comfortable everyday living for families, first-time buyers, or investors alike. Downstairs, the fully developed basement is a true throwback in the best way possible — complete with a retro bar, iconic red shag carpet, and a wall-mounted electric fireplace that creates the ultimate space for entertaining, relaxing, or hosting game nights. A separate back entry offers excellent potential for a future secondary suite (subject to city approval). Outside, enjoy the beautifully maintained yard with established garden beds, a stone patio, gazebo, and garden shed — the perfect setting for summer evenings. The oversized detached single garage with an attached carport provides ample off-street parking and storage space. Major updates including the roof, furnace, and hot water tank have all been completed within the last 10 years, offering peace of mind for years to come. Conveniently located close to major bus routes, schools, shopping, recreation centres, green spaces, and pathways, this is a rare opportunity to own a solid, well-cared-for home in an unbeatable location!

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
