Welcome to Blong Avenue - one of Leslieville's most coveted, character-filled streets. Built circa 1888 and loved by the same owner for years, this three-bedroom row house offers an abundance of historic character, with thoughtful updates for modern life, and the reassurance of a clean pre-list home inspection. The beautifully renovated Miralis kitchen by Leslieville Kitchens overlooks picturesque Blong Avenue, while mahogany French doors, reclaimed from a Forest Hill library, extend the living room out into a lush, landscaped backyard - perfect for entertaining, gardening or quiet summer evenings. Two bedrooms on the 2nd floor are joined by a versatile third-floor retreat that works beautifully as a primary bedroom, home office, creative studio or family room. A brand-new third-floor deck provides a peaceful perch above the gardens, and custom transitional railings, designed by local artist Mark Prendrgawst of Deity Metallurgy add a refined design detail throughout. The unfinished basement offers excellent storage, laundry and an existing WC - a practical convenience now, with possibilities for future expansion. At the rear, a hardscaped PRIVATE PARKING SPOT provides dedicated, low-maintenance off-street parking. Surrounded by mature trees, historic homes and neighbours who genuinely know and care for one another, this is a clean, carefully maintained home with timeless Leslieville character - ready to be enjoyed today and personalized over time.
