341A Wellesley Street East

The Details

341A Wellesley Street East is a beautiful example of a classic, three-storey Edwardian, iconic to the charming streetscapes of Cabbagetown. This impressive house embodies the best of both worlds, as the classic architecture and stunning curb appeal are further enhanced by the newly renovated and thoroughly modern interior, as well as the contemporary flow throughout the home.

The focal point of the open-concept living- and dining area is undoubtedly the open-air gas fireplace with stone surround – a perfect spot for unwinding from the stresses of the day or for entertaining a gathering of friends. The space also features white oak hardwood floors, high ceilings, designer light fixtures and pot lights throughout.

The sun-filled gourmet kitchen is certain to inspire one’s inner chef or foodie. It was recently remodelled to exacting standards by Weenen and has been outfitted with Bellini custom cabinetry, stone counters, brand new, high-end appliances, a built-in breakfast table and stunning floor-to-ceiling pantry with walk-out to the private rear garden.

This level also features a functional and highly practical main floor mudroom – perfect for busy families and pets. This space offers two potential walk-outs to the side of the home and includes a large closet for valuable extra storage.

Once you ascend the contemporary, glass-railed staircase, you are met with the equally impressive second-floor layout, including the primary suite featuring a spa-like four-piece bath with double vanities, extra-large windows for maximum sunlight and enviably large closet with custom cabinetry. The second bedroom offers wonderful views of the historic streetscape below and features a double closet and a practical three-piece, semi-ensuite bathroom. This level also offers the convenience of a second-floor laundry room outfitted with custom cabinetry, stone counters and an invaluable extra storage closet.

The third level is comprised of a spacious, open-concept family room or office; a third bedroom with double closet and access to a large rooftop with great potential for a terrace; a sparkling four-piece bathroom and hall closet.  The open-concept home office could easily be closed off and converted into a fourth bedroom. It features extra-high vaulted ceilings, a spectacular floor-to-ceiling exposed brick accent wall and a skylight.

The home’s lower level offers an abundance of space and endless possibilities with an existing gym area, additional reading/relaxing space set up as well as storage.  Alternatively, one could expand and customize this level using the already in place architect’s plans and rough-in plumbing available.

The private rear garden includes an irrigation system, a beautiful stone fountain, and a modern steel pergola engulfed in the branches of a mature wisteria that provides a shaded space for entertaining.

The property also features every urbanite’s dream: a detached double-car garage with French doors, high ceilings and plenty of storage – potential for a laneway suite or green roof abounds.

Sitting just a stone’s throw away from Parliament Street with its village-like vibe filled with bakeries, shops, restaurants, cafes and gourmet grocers, this home truly brings the best of urban living to your doorstep.

It is also near some of the city’s best parklands, including Riverdale Park and Riverdale Farm, cycling and hiking trails, excellent public and private schools and is just minutes away from the DVP with direct access to the downtown core.
