Things to Love | Sellers’ Words

• On a sunny morning while gardening out front, a woman passing by on her morning walk said to me “this house is like a living poem”. It was that moment that I really fell for this elegantly crafted home.
• It’s nestled in the rolling landscape of Swansea/High Park.
• The home faces East with beautiful glimpses of the sunrise and that magical first morning light.
• Looking out onto the lush of Toronto’s High Park is a gift every single day.
• It feels like living in a treehouse with the porch swing and rooftop garden.
• The wisteria vine that graces the wrap around deck is a delight.
• It is as if you are in a cottage in the city.
• The garage fits 4 cars!
• Amenities and conveniences of Bloor Street West and the High Park subway station are just steps away.
• Palmer Coffee is a sweet coffee spot with a morning sun kissed patio; Buck’s Hard Goods is a lovely shop supplying home and personal fashion and wares; No Frills; Cheese Boutique; Garden’s Food for all your convenience and grocer needs.
• Whether it be a sunrise walk with the cardinals, robins and blue jays, or a sunset walk with the hawks and red winged blackbirds, at any time of the day, having the access to downtown Toronto’s expansive High Park, with its vibrant Carolinian Forest steps from your door, is a dream.
