30 h. ago A Toronto home that hasn't been on the market since 1965 is a total time capsule

Some houses feel like they've been plucked straight out of another era, but 547 Ossington Ave. has literally been living in the same decade since The Beatles were still all alive and together.For the first time since 1965, the charming corner property at Dewson St. and Ossington Ave. is up for grabs, and walking inside feels like cracking open a perfectly preserved time capsule.We're talking teal-blue carpet, a wood-panelled basement and retro brown kitchen tiles. The only thing missing is a swirl of groovy wallpaper and a pastel pink toilet.The living room. If you can look past — or fully embrace — the retro vibes, this place is actually a rare downtown gem.The kitchen. 547 Ossington Ave. is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-storey house with a centre-hall layout and a private drive with a detached garage — a combo so scarce in this area of Toronto, you might expect it to come with a velvet rope and an admission fee...

If you've ever dreamed of living somewhere your backyard looks less like "suburbia" and more like a five-star Caribbean resort, 59 Macamo Crt. in Vaughan is basically the real estate equivalent of a mic drop.Set on a gated 1.11-acre ravine lot, this estate is about as subtle as a gold-plated yacht.The heated driveway says "shovelling is for peasants," the cathedral-high ceilings scream opulence, and the solid concrete block construction makes it feel like it could survive a zombie apocalypse — if zombies were even allowed past the gate.The living room. Inside, you get over 11,000 square feet of living space — enough room for your family, your in-laws, your friends, and the entire cast of a reality TV pilot.The family room. The main floor is open-concept with all the living areas flowing from one room to the next.The primary bedroom. Upstairs, the six bedrooms and eight bathrooms are all styled like luxury hotel suites, complete...

3 d. ago A Toronto home that's been in the same family for over 100 years just hit the market

Toronto's Lawrence Park is famous for its stately multi-million dollar homes, manicured lawns, and more history than your average block in the city.But even among the area's grand old properties, 213 St. Leonards Ave. stands out for quite a unique reason: it's been in the same family for over a century; 102 years, in fact, according to its listing agent."We still have the original blueprints inside," says agent Michael Silverberg.A view into the dining room. He adds that the house is an original Tudor revival, and has "such great charm."

4 d. ago Someone is trying to sell this Toronto house with no roof for $13.6 million

In 2020, 975 Dovercourt Rd. sold for $1,450,000 as a four-bedroom, four-bathroom home with "lots of opportunity."Back then, the ground floor was home to a beauty salon, while the rest of the building was residential. But even in 2020, it wasn't exactly move-in ready — the original listing literally had "needs work!" in the description.Five years later, it seems like it still very much "needs work!"The current listing photo, which was taken before renovations began. If you walk past the home today, you'll notice a glaring lack of roof and the fact that the interiors have been completely gutted.The current owners clearly started renovating — possibly with plans to turn the place into something bigger — but somewhere along the way, the project stalled. Maybe they hit permit snags, maybe funding ran dry, or maybe they're just taking a really long coffee break.And yet… the property is back on...

There are many factors Canadian homebuyers need to consider when it comes to making the big purchase.Sometimes, the decision comes down to budget; other times, it comes down to checking off all of the amenities on your wishlist.When it comes to dealbreakers for Canadian homebuyers, a new Leger survey commissioned by RE/MAX Canada found that what's on the outside might matter more than what's on the inside.The survey found that prospective homebuyers are judging listings based on curb appeal and the state of the neighbourhood even before they stop inside the home."While the home is the ultimate goal for buyers, the neighbouring properties and surrounding community often say a lot about what life might be like there for you, as a resident," said Don Kottick, president of RE/MAX Canada."Not all homebuyers are able or willing to see past a rough exterior to find properties with potential, and something like an unkempt streetscape could be their sign...

5 d. ago Buyers are getting homes for way under asking price across these GTA neighbourhoods

Home sales are slowly starting to pick up again in and around Toronto, which has seen an extended period of real estate turmoil while buyers wait to see what comes of the trade war with the U.S. and the economic recession.Sick of standing by for a better time that may never come, more homeowner hopefuls waded into the market in July, which had the largest uptick in transaction volumes of any July since 2021.Part of what helped this was softer prices, especially in the condo sector, where the standard unit now sells for 9.3 per cent less than it was a year ago.Meanwhile, the average sales price across housing types in the region has fallen 5.5 per cent over the same period, in part due to bidders successfully offering less than the asking price to desperate sellers whose properties are sitting up for grabs for far longer than ever.Toronto-based real estate agency Wahi regularly assesses where and to what degree houses and condos in the region are go...
