About this home
This three bedroom home with parking is a commuter's dream! Enjoy an fully updated home with tiled bath, maple, granite, & S/S kitchen and in-unit laundry. The kitchen, living and dining rooms are contiguous open space, so sought after in today's market, which makes the square footage seem larger. A lovely back deck and private yard space offers an opportunity to enjoy the outdoors as well as do some urban gardening. Located on a tree-lined Tower Street with easy access to Forest Hill T as well as the walking trails and sculpture gardens of Forest Hill Cemetery. You will also appreciate the diversity of cafes, restaurants, and even the Harvest Co-op in close proximity. Additionally this unit has been fully insulated for increased efficiency & there is lots of storage in the basement. Upcoming exterior painting is planned and payed for by current owners and association.
