768 Shaw Street

Beautiful 4+1 Bedroom Edwardian in a Vibrant Neighbourhood! 

Welcome to 768 Shaw Street, a charming, 2.5-storey Edwardian gem in the heart of dynamic Christie Pits. This delightful home greets you with a lush perennial garden, fragrant lilac tree and welcoming front porch, perfect for savouring Saturday morning coffee and watching the world go by on a summer’s eve!  Inside, sunny maple hardwood, gorgeous original wood staircase and banister, stained glass and lovingly restored wide wood baseboards lend a beautiful warmth and patina to the space.

The cozy main floor living room anchored by a gorgeous fireplace flows seamlessly into a bright, modern dining room and a wonderfully oversized eat-in kitchen, with Caesarstone counters, quality appliances, stainless steel kitchen island and a walk-out to a private backyard garden framed by two mature cherry trees – the literal cherry on top!

There are four spacious, airy bedrooms that span the upper levels of the second and third floors plus a fifth bedroom located in the finished basement – perfect for visiting family or guests.  The house has two full 4 piece bathrooms, one on the 2nd floor and one in the basement. You will be drawn in by the original limestone walls in the lower level and want to cozy up to watch your favourite shows in the rec room. The dedicated laundry area rounds out the basement perfectly. Tons of storage can be found throughout the home with numerous closets throughout! There’s even a sweet little hidden spot out front for garbage and recycling bins!

With its versatile layout, this property can accommodate single-family use or could be easily converted into two generous suites offering flexibility for multi-generational living or healthy rental income. There is also very exciting potential to expand the third floor by adding another room and/or possibly even a deck! Imagine the possibilities!

The location couldn’t be more ideal. Just steps to Bloor Street’s restaurants & amenities, the Ossington & Christie TTC stations,  bike lanes and Christie Pits & Bickford Parks – home to pools, skating, basketball courts, dog park, movie nights, and the AAA Toronto Maple Leafs baseball team! And with several exciting developments, such as Mirvish Village & Market, the luxury Residences at Dupont & Shaw, and Galleria on the Park which are all set to open shortly, it’s an exciting time to invest in a truly special home in a thriving community – don’t miss out!
