114 Rhodes Avenue, Toronto

Imagine the possibilities. On a quiet, tree-lined stretch of the street, where Leslieville meets the Beaches, 114 Rhodes puts the east end's best spots within walking distance. Lake Inez, Black Pony and Lazy Daisy's are about a six minutes' walk away, Rocca's No Frills covers the groceries, and Woodbine and Greenwood Parks are within walking distance, with the beach a 20-minute stroll. The Gerrard streetcar and the Coxwell bus to Coxwell Station connect you to the rest of the city. This clean, freshly painted 2-bedroom semi is the perfect starting point for someone ready to make it their own, with a kitchen waiting for your personal touch. Out back is the surprise: a heated extension with its own entrance. Use it as a home office, studio or gym, close to the house but separate enough for real focus. Beyond it, a sweet garden-lined yard with room to sit out on summer evenings, plus a full basement for storage, a workshop and easy access to the mechanicals. No condo fees, no board, and no rules on how you renovate.
