When soulless grey boxes in the sky are the majority of the Toronto apartments out there
it's a nice treat to find an apartment with charm
and flooring that isn't grey vinyl.
is one of those apartment buildings that packs a punch.

might have the nicest garden of any apartment building in Toronto.
The professionally landscaped grounds have a private garden with a pond.
a sprinkler system for keeping things low maintenance
and a large garden shed with all the equipment you could want to maintain your oasis.
Mosaic tile on the landing of the stairs.
What's even nicer, if you're in the market to buy an entire apartment building, is that the two fourplexes are listed for only $4,250,000.
And that's down from the earlier listing price of $4,385,000.
There are single-family homes in that area that sell for more than that.
it's not like the fourplexes are ready to be torn down
The property has been clearly well-maintained and is fire code compliant
Another living room with a fireplace.
The buildings house eight two-bedroom apartments
each with its own private balconies.
The kitchen appliances could use some updating in some of the units.
There are definitely some things that might need updating in the units
and the fact that there isn't in-suite laundry or air conditioning for the units might be a deal breaker for some renters.
given the location and the fact that the units are very spacious
the units will likely be rented out at close to market rate.
it's unclear how much revenue each unit brings in since blogTO wasn't given access to the financials at the time of publication
currently Toronto's average rental price for two bedrooms is $2,900 a month
and the average rental price for the Humewood Cedarvale neighbourhood is $2,806 a month.
Although, rent prices have been falling to record lows, and there's no information on how many units are available
so charging current market rent might not be feasible right off the bat.
you'd likely make a net income of almost $300,000 a year
plus some extra from the coin-operated washer and dryer.

Although whoever buys this place likely won't be buying it for the rental income
but more than likely for the investment potential
With the new Eglinton LRT being close by and a dozen condo buildings in the works in the neighbourhood
this site is primed for a development project.
All we can hope for is that the charming apartment building stays and a characterless condo doesn't take its place.

Few Toronto condo projects can match 908 St
Clair when it comes to multi-neighbourhood access
the 12-storey building by developer Canderel is steps from Oakwood Village to the north
Casa Loma and Forest Hill South to the east

This uniquely diverse stretch of midtown is being dubbed St
The Montreal-based firm is also developing 900 St
a 12-storey residence under construction next to 908
and operates a sales centre for both buildings at 805 St
“We’re looking for other opportunities in the direct vicinity that could be part of an even bigger community,” says chief operating officer Ben Rogowski
“We’re very committed to this area and very excited by it
There’s a lot of entrepreneurial spirit and character.”
The streetcar-serviced and pedestrian-friendly stretch of St
Clair at 908’s doorstep is home to restaurants
butchers and bakeries that reflect the various cultural communities that call the area home
has been designated as an Arts District by the City of Toronto owing to an active community that celebrates and promotes local artists through exhibits
art contests and mural installations in public spaces
A work by the multi-disciplinary artist Curtia Wright
“Celebrating Queer Black Lives,” for instance
can currently be viewed at The Beer Store at 529 Oakwood Ave
While not yet an “It” thoroughfare like Ossington Avenue or Liberty Street
“Residents of 908 won’t be coming into a neighbourhood and crossing their fingers that it will change the way they’re being told it will change
It’s mature in its character and in its spirit
but it’s not as mature in terms of the development that’s gone on
We’re in the middle innings of gentrification
A few new developments have been completed
Clad in grey masonry and featuring wooden canopies over its residential and retail entrances
908 “is not an attention-seeker but has a subtle
sophisticated design that respects the character and privacy of surrounding homes,” says Prishram Jain

residents can head to a private dining room

the 169 suites feature nine-foot ceilings and island-equipped kitchens with integrated European appliances
quartz countertops and glass-tiled backsplashes
The project also offers four two-storey townhouse units with direct street access
With even larger homes available by combining units
“there’s really no limit on who can live at 908,” Rogowski says
“We are seeing a lot of buyer interest across a wide range of demographics
with a common thread being that people want to be removed from the bustle of downtown yet still close to the action.”
The nearby Cedarvale Park caters to four-season family activities with a splash pad for kids, tennis courts, a lush ravine path that connects to Forest Hill, an outdoor skating rink and one of the top toboggan hills in the City. 443 Arlington Ave.
Steps west along St. Clair, Emma’s Country Kitchen pleases big eaters with brunch favourites such as the ECK Beltbuster, a heaping plate of eggs, sage-and-onion sausages, house-cured bacon, buttermilk pancakes, a freshly baked biscuit and fruit salad, green salad or home fries. 810 St Clair Ave. W.
The pandemic-induced surge in cycling has been a boon for Dismount Bike Shop, which specializes in city, adventure, mountain and children’s bikes.

The home at 24 Heathdale Road
designed by renowned architect Drew Mandel
juxtaposes modern touches inside against the spectacular ravine landscape that runs behind the property
The modern-meets-rustic exterior of the three-storey house features a mixed wood siding and a distinct triangular pitched roof perforated by windows
bringing a striking individuality to the street
Stepping inside welcomes potential homebuyers to a breathtaking living space
featuring tile floors and wrap-around windows that allow plenty of light in
The bespoke kitchen and formal dining area boast dark hardwood floors and many glass windows looking into the almost forest-like backyard environment
Vaulted ceilings going up to the top floor of the house terminate in skylights that are a definite selling boost and make the already generous space feel so much more airy and open
the kitchen is beautifully contrasted against warm accents like the dark woods of the home and lower cabinetry
The double gas-range stovetop and double oven installed on a floating wall space are so chic without sacrificing natural light through the surrounding floor-to-ceiling windows
A family room also overlooks the ravine lot
with more of those sprawling windows and a custom Algonquin stone fireplace for a cottage-like feel
the entire back of the home is framed by these enormous windows
The wood lining the ceiling is made of a special Jatoba (often called Brazilian Cherry) boards
an extremely strong and stiff type of lumber
residents are welcomed into multiple bedrooms
The primary bathroom looks straight into the ravine as well
offering a serene backdrop to the space's double sink and rectangular slab soaker tub
A potential office space features a custom wall-length desk area
looking into the literal forest in the backyard
The specialty fitness centre will make you feel like you're exercising in a peaceful garden while the punchy orange wall adds a bit of vibrant character to the room
climate-controlled wine cellar has enough space to house hundreds of bottles
Now the back of the house is truly the one of the most special parts of the home
appearing more like a piece in an art gallery — or perhaps the art gallery itself — than a home in Toronto
modern cube appearance dramatically contrasts with the natural yard landscape
They actually lead to a spacious wooden terrace in the backyard

Clair West area for months in what locals are calling an "epidemic."
Clair West and Vaughan Road have been hit with at least 80 attempted and successful vehicle break-ins
There have also been several incidents where packages have been stolen from residents' properties
a problem which Toronto Police's 13 Division describes as an "ongoing issue."
There have been more than 80 incidents of vehicle break-ins around St
Clair West and Vaughan in the last four months
This car was one of three on Arlington Ave
From smashed car windows and multiple break-ins on the same vehicles to parcels stolen right off of doorsteps
the staggering number of attacks by at least several individuals (including one car scrounger referred to as 'flashlight guy') has become a daily—and costly—struggle for those targeted
It’s come to the point where many car-owners have resigned themselves to the fact that their vehicles might be hit next
residents must consider leaving their cars unlocked night after night
As long as they don't leave any valuables in the vehicle
nothing will get stolen (except maybe the car itself)
"There are attempts at least three times a week," says Suzanne Lejeune
whose home security cameras have caught thieves tampering with her vehicles behind her home at Kenwood and Maplewood multiple times
Clair West resident's home security camera captures a man known to residents as Flashlight Guy peering into her vehicles with a flashlight
Lejeune says she and her husband bought a camera system two summers ago during the "first wave" of car break-ins
but upgraded recently to get better pictures of the perpetrators
she says they've spent about $2,000 on cameras
and monthly subscription fees for programs that let them save the video from their camera—footage that her husband goes through every morning in what's become "a full time job" for him
with a record of 10 cars damaged in the area in one night
One resident left a note for stating there was nothing of value in her car
but the perpetrators broke her window anyway
Residents have even resorted to leaving notes in their window
"There's nothing of value kept in this car," read one note addressed to thieves
But even that didn't work: the driver's seat window of her vehicle was broken on Sunday
Division 13 of the TPS stated yesterday that a 45-year-old man had been arrested on Friday in relation to the vehicle break-ins around St
which might help to curb the incidents for now
As to the handful of occasions where nearby residents have had packages stolen right off their property since early December
Toronto Police Service commented on Facebook today that they'd continue to investigate the issue
Home security camera footage captured a thief taking a package from the porch of a home on Arlington Ave
Photo courtesy of resident who asked to remain anonymous
But until the slew of criminal activity cools down, residents are continuing to keep each other informed through Facebook groups like the St. Clair West Residents Group and Humewood-Cedarvale pages
One resident, Simon Strauss, has even documented the vehicular incidents in a shareable map
compiling data through a survey he sent out in late December
Though the data is limited to users active in certain community Facebook groups
Strauss had residents document details like what was stolen
and what time their cars were tampered with on a Google Sheets document
A map compiled by local resident Simon Strauss shows there have been at least 79 break-ins in the area
only 57 percent or residents reported it to police
some locals feel like they're running out of options
"It is frustrating but I know that [police] can't see into every driveway and back alley," said one resident
whose car was broken into before Christmas
"Even if they are caught they can't be held long
