Lovely 1 Bedroom House in West End

NOTE 2: As a matter of security, we also ask that you fill your profile out fully and add a picture before inquiring about a stay. We do not accept bookings from blank profiles. Thanks!

We have a cool and cosy private apartment available for your stay. And it is brand spankin' new! Separate entrance, private kitchen and bathroom with double bed in the bedroom as well as a sofa bed in the living room. It is the full basement of a large, detached newly renovated century home with a beautiful backyard and new patio. It would be comfortable for a couple or up to a family of four. We live just upstairs!

It is a great neighbourhood with tons of shopping, parks, art galleries, cafes, and restaurants; nearby farmers market, along with local Asian, African and Latin American grocery, and a bulk food store. Literally steps to Dufferin subway station, it is one of the most multicultural neighbourhoods in the city.

From our house you can walk ten minutes south to a Latin dinner club, Lula Lounge, with live world music most nights and a live salsa orchestra on the weekends. Or you could walk east to an excellent Ethiopian restaurant where dinner for two costs less than $15 (we have no idea how she does it!). Further east is Korea town with karaoke and amazing food. And at the end of our street and heading west along Bloor there has been an explosion of new, hip bars and restaurants - like Ortolan, with its extensive wine and beer menu and tasty dishes with entrees and sides sold separately so that you can mix n match. Or the recently opened Karelia Kitchen that specializes in Scandanavian cuisine. If you're a coffee drinker you'll be in heaven - there's about ten cafes within a two minute walk of our house. In addition, with the subway so close you can get to the Royal Ontario Museum in less than 15 minutes, switch trains and head south to the Art Gallery of Ontario in under half an hour, or go shopping at the Eaton Centre or Yorkdale in 30 minutes.
