About this home

Great things truly arrive in small packages. Behind the beautifully-updated historic façade of this 1885 Victorian residence lies an unexpected, expansive light-filled interior, offering nearly 1500 sq ft of cleverly-designed living space. Six years after the substantial residence was built for Mr. James Harvey Self, it was thoughtfully divided into two semi-detached homes, preserving its grand street presence while creating an intimate, sophisticated urban retreat. Hence the word 'half' in the address.Step inside to discover an art gallery-inspired aesthetic defined by simple lines. The main floor boasts an exceptional layout, beginning with a hard-to-find powder room-a true premium for a property of this era. The long living room has two seating areas and features a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for relaxing on chilly evenings. Adjacent to this space, a separate cozy dining room stands ready for dinner parties, flowing effortlessly into the bright, functional eat-in kitchen. Moving upstairs, the second storey offers a total of three bright bedrooms. The primary bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed and features a generous walk-in closet. On the lower level, the unfinished basement offers incredible potential for future customization or extra storage, complete with a convenient walk-up leading to the front gated garden (great for bringing bikes and sports equipment in and out). At the rear of the home, spectacular Bauhaus glass doors open onto an enchanting, fully fenced back garden. This private outdoor oasis features a deck and stone pathway, with lush landscaping, offering a peaceful escape from the bustling city. The back gate provides direct access to the dedicated extra-wide rear parking space, a massive convenience in this downtown enclave. Discerning buyers will fully appreciate the impressive 127-foot depth of this deep urban lot. Beyond your front door, the vibrant spirit of prime Cabbagetown awaits with fantastic parkland and restaurants.
