Prime Downtown Location!

With almost a perfect WalkScore of 99/100, the city is "yours to discover" on foot! Located just east of Yonge St and west of Church, this convenient location provides walking access to Toronto's business, entertainment and financial districts. The house is also in an ideal location for staff at hospitals like Toronto General or St. Michael's, or professors at Ryerson University or George Brown College. The location is popular with professional couples who like the downtown lifestyle, but not the concrete jungle. Stroll to and from work!

The neighbourhood is a mix of professionals, families, artists and people who enjoy downtown living.

Plenty of parks and green space surround! Allan Gardens is a popular gathering spot and attracts thousands of visitors with the glass conservatory, and the numerous weddings, along with a playground for kids and a big off-leash dog park.

Nearby Moss Park includes a sports field, a baseball diamond, and two tennis courts. Within Moss Park are the John Innes Community Recreation Centre, and the Moss Park Arena for skating and hockey. Moss Park is in the midst of being studied and planned for revitalization and the City has partnered with the 519 Community Centre. The proposed redevelopment has three goals: serve local communities; enhance existing programs, services and public spaces; and create a welcoming, accessible space for everyone who uses Moss Park. It is part of TOcore - The City of Toronto's Downtown Plan, a 25-year vision that sets the direction for the city centre as the cultural, civic, retail and economic heart of Toronto. Focused on community facilities and parks, the potential redevelopment of Moss Park would be a welcome addition to the neighbourhood.

Shop to you drop at the high-end fashion stores on Bloor Street, trendy shops and restaurants on Church Street, and day-to-day retail shopping on Wellesley, Gerrard, Sherbourne and Charles Streets. The major shopping centre in this part of the city is the Eaton Centre, which is Toronto's largest indoor shopping mall, with over three hundred stores.

The recently minted Downtown Yonge shopping destination includes over 600 retail stores, 150 bars and restaurants, 8 hotels, 4 theatres and Yonge-Dundas Square which is Toronto's version of Times Square and features year round concerts, events and community celebrations.

Just a 10 minute drive to one of Toronto's most popular landmarks the St. Lawrence Market. Founded in 1803, it is home to over 120 vendors, merchants, farmers and artisans with a passion for great food. It is frequented by both tourists and locals.

You are close enough to enjoy the beautiful sounds of the church bells at St. Michael's Cathedral Basilica. Walk to see a play at the Ed Mirvish or the Elgin & Wintergarden Theatre, or catch a concert at Massey Hall (currently being refurbished).

5 star public transportation. Bus services on Wellesley and Carlton Streets connect to the Sherbourne station on the Yonge-University-Spadina subway line. The Sherbourne Street bus connects to the Sherbourne station on the Bloor-Danforth subway line. There is also an express bus that runs on Jarvis Street during rush hour only. Motorists are approximately 10 minutes from Lake Shore Blvd & the Gardiner Expressway.

Excellent school options including a couple of coveted French schools, Le Collge francais (French language high school) and cole elementaire Gabrielle-Roy which are both operated by Conseil scolaire Viamonde, a secular public school board. Church St Jr. P.S., Jesse Ketchum Jr. & Sr. P.S., Central Technical School, Ryerson University, George Brown Collage plus more public, private, Catholic and daycares are nearby.
