Property Description

Built in 1870 and believed to have once served as the neighbourhood post office, this one-of-a-kind detached home blends historic character with hard-loft-inspired design on an extraordinary 22 x 147 ft lot with rare two-car laneway parking.

Originally a 3+1 bedroom home, previous owners reimagined the second floor by opening up the space and creating an architecturally striking catwalk connecting the two remaining bedrooms, one complete with an ensuite and laundry.

The open-concept main floor offers dramatic scale and volume with soaring 18ft ceilings, two oversized skylights, floor-to-ceiling exposed brick, a modern gas fireplace, floating staircase, and expansive living and dining spaces designed for entertaining, creating a true loft-like feel.

The lower level, once used as a separate suite, has been seamlessly reincorporated into the home while retaining its galley kitchen and decorative arched fireplace, offering exceptional flexibility for guests, workspace, or future income potential.

Backing directly onto Oakvale Green, the property enjoys a rare sense of privacy and tranquility with lush green views that make the setting feel unexpectedly expansive. Professionally landscaped front and rear gardens were completed this spring, while two industrial shipping containers currently offer exceptional storage with exciting potential for conversion into a home office, studio, or gym. This truly special urban retreat is steps to transit and neighbourhood favourites including Left Field Brewery, Maha’s Brunch, The Only Cafe, North of Brooklyn Pizzeria, and The Wood Owl.
