This historic Cabbagetown home holds a legacy of pretty period details and has been carefully upgraded and renovated during its enjoyment by the current owners. Built in 1887, it offers just over 2000 square feet of living space above-grade, and a unique legal apartment space in the lower level for added security with extra income. 

Soaring ten foot ceilings greet you in the foyer and carry through the principal spaces. The living room is centred upon an original fireplace setting with intricate carvings, and a big west facing bay window fills the space with light. The dining room is generous in scale, and is a perfect host to large gatherings of friends and family.

The kitchen has just been upgraded to now include crisp white quartz countertops, painted wooden cabinetry and optionality around breakfast bar or table seating. The room enjoys quiet views over the landscaped perennial gardens, where a new cedar fence has been erected. Drawings are available for a parking entrance, which would be accessed by the wide laneways behind the property. Please inquire further with us for more information.  

The main floor is conveniently serviced by a main floor powder room, and two storage closets for coats or supplies. Each are conveniently tucked away between the dining room and kitchen.

The second floor holds three excellent bedroom spaces, and all are enhanced by the continuation of tall Victorian ceiling heights. The primary bedroom lies at the front of the home with a west facing bay window, a wall of closet storage, and a concealed laundry closet with a stacked washer/dryer. The three bedrooms on this floor are serviced by a beautiful marble-clad bathroom with a separate shower and claw foot tub, and a pretty custom marble vanity that is built-into the features of this room.  

The lower level has been renovated with permits and approvals from the City to be a separate legal apartment. The entrance is from the rear of the house, with access via a secure side gate. The suite offers new flooring, a new kitchen with quartz countertops, a renovated bathroom and an adorable bedroom space with two built-in beds. There is a wall of storage that lines the south wall of the unit, and new pot lights are included in each room. 

Set in the charming neighbourhood of Cabbagetown, residents enjoy the urban amenities surrounding the streets lined with beautiful Victorian architecture. Walking access can be had to Riverdale Farms, Wellesley Park, the connecting ravine systems and charming local establishments like Park Snacks, and F’Amelia Ristorante. Easy connections can be made to the downtown financial district, to the waterfront, the DVP or Gardiner for out of town commutes. 

473 Sackville Street is a charming Victorian home with a lengthy list of improvements that is not to be missed.
