New Price | 2191 Yonge St, Suite 3012

Thirty floors up at Yonge + Eglinton, this 641 sq ft one-bedroom delivers what matters when you're buying a condo to live in: an efficient layout, serious storage, natural light, a private balcony, and unobstructed southeast views across the city and toward the lake.

Add a customized walk-in closet, a locker for your outdoor gear, thoughtful updates throughout and an already impressive amenity offering that's getting even better.

And with short-term rentals not permitted, you get added peace of mind from a building designed for owners and long-term residents, not a revolving door of Airbnb guests.

Start at the blue front door, finish at the backyard gate to the park, and take your time with everything in between.

76 Hiltz Ave is a 2+1 bedroom, 2 bathroom Leslieville semi shaped by more than a decade of considered improvements, from white terrazzo floor tiles and a mitred double-edge quartz backsplash in the renovated kitchen to engineered hardwood, an underpinned basement with nearly 7ft ceilings, and custom storage solutions throughout.

The setting is just as much a part of it: Greenwood Park at one end of the street, your favourite spots on Queen East at the other.

And yes, there's parking. In Leslieville, that deserves extra attention.

76 Hiltz Ave | Open House | October 3 and 4 from 2:00 to 4:00 pm

There's a lot to like about the way 546 Main St lives day to day.

The enclosed front porch gives coats, boots and dog gear somewhere to land. The living and dining areas are separate rooms. The renovated kitchen has heated floors, plenty of storage and a skylight overhead, with the backyard waiting just outside.

And it's quite a backyard: a large deck under a pergola, followed by a deep, west-facing lawn and serene garden.

We'll have the doors open at 546 Main St this weekend.

At 76 Hiltz Ave, the neighbourhood feels like part of the floor plan.

The front porch is wide enough to linger, with integrated bench seating overlooking the landscaped garden. The little library encourages neighbours to stop on their way past. At the opposite end of the property, the backyard gate opens directly onto the park.

Between the two is a house that has been steadily and thoughtfully worked on for more than a decade.

The 2024 kitchen renovation introduced crisp white terrazzo flooring and a mitred double-edge Quartz backsplash. Engineered hardwood brings continuity to the main living spaces. Upstairs, the primary bedroom combines designer wallpaper and crown moulding with a custom built-in closet.

Below, an underpinned basement with approximately seven-foot ceilings, built-in storage and a second bathroom gives the 2+1-bedroom layout meaningful flexibility.

Then there's the location: Greenwood Park in one direction, Queen East in the other, with restaurants, cafés, independent shops and the streetcar woven into everyday life.

This home has its own point of view, with substance behind the details.

546 Main St gets the fundamentals right: a renovated semi-detached house, a layout that makes sense, flexible extra space downstairs, a backyard you'll actually use and a surprisingly walkable neighbourhood.

The enclosed front porch handles the clutter before you step inside. The living and dining rooms are separate spaces, and the beautifully renovated kitchen sits at the back with heated floors, a skylight, plenty of storage, and a walkout to the deck.

And that's where the house really opens up. The west-facing backyard stretches along a 122.5-foot-deep lot, with a large deck, pergola, grassy yard and garden beyond.

Upstairs are two good-sized bedrooms and a renovated bathroom. Downstairs, the finished basement includes a bonus room for a third bedroom, office or playroom, with separate unfinished storage.

The Niagara neighbourhood has changed dramatically from its industrial past. Former meatpacking and industrial lands have steadily given way to condos and townhomes, and that evolution is still visible as the remaining sites are redeveloped. The result is a part of the west end where different versions of Toronto sit side by side: new residential buildings, historic Fort York, established parks and the downtown skyline beyond.

What distinguishes this pocket of Toronto is how naturally the city meets the waterfront. The lake isn't somewhere you need to plan to visit on the weekend; it's part of the everyday landscape. You can head out along the trail, cross through a park, walk toward King West or Liberty Village, or continue into the core without really leaving the neighbourhood behind.

For a downtown neighbourhood, Niagara covers a lot of ground: historic and contemporary, residential and energetic, connected to the city while still giving you room to step away from its busiest streets.

Wall-to-wall windows, southeast corner exposure, and a view that stretches from the park to the marina and Lake Ontario.

Welcome to 628 Fleet St, Suite 825.

Natural light fills this 827 sq. ft. corner suite, while a large balcony puts the waterfront outlook just outside the living space.
The one-bedroom-plus-den layout includes a fully enclosed den with its own door and window, plenty of storage, parking and a locker. The suite has also been recently painted.

Beyond the suite, there's a pool, gym, lake-facing 11th-floor terrace, landscaped courtyard, piano lounge, theatre, party and games rooms, guest suites and 24-hour concierge.

The streetcar is at the front door. The Martin Goodman Trail, Coronation Park, Little Norway Park and the Toronto Music Garden extend along the waterfront, while Loblaws, LCBO and Shoppers Drug Mart cover the practical side nearby. Streetcar service runs along the surrounding Bathurst, Lake Shore and Queens Quay corridors, and Billy Bishop Airport is close at hand.

Research shows that two-thirds of home sellers hire the first agent they talk to.

The. First. One.

If you wouldn't marry the first person you went on a date with (okay, some of you did, but you get the point), you probably shouldn't hand over the keys to your biggest financial asset without at least exploring your options.

If you take nothing else from this post, let it be this: interview more than one.

Whether you're considering an individual agent or a team, here's what to focus on:

Hiring a listing agent? Two-thirds of sellers pick the first agent they meet. Here are 7 things to evaluate before you sign, from experience and marketing to pricing strategy and the fine print.
