Property Details

Adorable detached 1.5 storey home located in one of Toronto’s hidden treasures known as “The Pocket”.
The Pocket is a quiet friendly neighbourhood and an extension of Riverdale tucked in south of Danforth & East of Jones Avenue.

The current owners have loved the strong community spirit with organized street parties/BBQ’s and street clean-up days. Phin Park has movie nights & community organized recreation skating rink! Riverdale Farms is a local favourite as well.
Short walk to Pape or Donlands subway stations! Take in the infamous shopping, restaurants & entertainment along Danforth!
Attention 1st time buyers – Affordable starter home with long term potential to top up your investment with a full second storey for your “forever” home!
“The Pocket”
The area actually resembles a pocket – closed on three sides, open on one. You can only get to it from the west off of Jones Ave.
It’s small, quiet and unique sitting smack dab in the middle of one of Toronto’s most popular and busiest neighbourhoods!
The area’s residents love living here. The community’s relatively new personality started to take shape about twenty years ago when younger families and single professionals started buying up the affordable older homes. But there are still plenty of older, long term residents living in the “Pocket” because it appears that once you move IN… you’re in no hurry to move OUT!
Ravina Cres., a winding street south of Danforth Ave. off of Jones is the main entry point. Baird and Condor Avenues plus Earl Gray Road are the main streets but there are also several interesting smaller streets and lanes.
Lots of local shopping - just a few minutes south of the Danforth where residents can walk to their favourite restaurants, coffee shops, pubs and cafes - one of the Toronto's most popular destinations.
Popular school district! Earl Gray Senior Public and Riverdale Collegiate draw many to “The Pocket”.
Plenty of lush parks surround! Phin Avenue Parkette, Kempton Howard Park, Monarch Park, Greenwood Park, Withrow Park…
No need for a car! 2 TTC subway stops are just a short walk away – Pape Station to the West and Donlands to the East.
Convenient access down Jones to Queen & Lakeshore, or nearby DVP - Be downtown or out of the city in minutes!
