Description
Welcome home to a bright, inviting 1-bedroom suite on Metcalfe Street, one of the most admired and photographed streets in historic Cabbagetown, lined with restored Victorian homes, mature trees and well-tended front gardens. The street sits in a protected heritage conservation district, so its charm is here to stay. You don't just get a front door; you get your own private porch for morning coffee, evening reading or watching the seasons change. Cabbagetown feels like a small village minutes from downtown. Riverdale Farm is a short stroll away, a free, city-run working farm with heritage barns, ponds, trails and a seasonal farmers' market. Next door, Riverdale Park West offers some of the city's best sunsets. Allan Gardens and its historic glass conservatory are an easy walk, and the Don Valley trails are close by for running and cycling. Steps from No Frills, TD, CIBC and Shoppers Drug Mart, plus Parliament Street cafés, bakeries and restaurants, and about a 30-minute walk to the Eaton Centre and Toronto Metropolitan University. Every September the neighbourhood gathers for the much-loved Cabbagetown Festival. The 506 Carlton streetcar runs downtown, the Parliament bus connects north and south, Castle Frank station on the Bloor-Danforth line is a short walk or ride away, and drivers have quick access to the DVP. Ideal for someone wanting heritage charm, a private porch and the convenience of living close to the core. Don't miss your chance!
