Some homes simply exist. This one speaks to something more. Set quietly on Afton Avenue in the heart of Little Portugal, this early 20th-century townhouse blends historic charm with a purposeful series of modern upgrades. Set on a cozy city lot it feels larger than expected - taller ceilings, thoughtfully reimagined spaces, and natural light that travels gracefully from room to room. Inside, a fluid main floor offers hardwood underfoot and a seamless connection between living, dining, and a slate-floored kitchen with quartz counters - renovated in 2016, but still timeless. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms and an updated 3-piece bath form a calm retreat from the hum of the city, where the CN Tower quietly reveals itself beyond the rooftops - a reassuring compass and quiet reminder of the city's rhythm, especially after dark. While below, a fully finished basement offers a second full bath, laundry, and a generous recreation space with hardwood flooring - perfect for quiet evenings, creative work, or overflow guests. The details speak softly but clearly: windows and doors replaced just a year ago; roof refreshed, and systems steadily maintained. A concrete path leads to a charming front entry; out back, a fenced garden and tiled patio offer a private pause, sheltered and green, with a discreet side entrance to the home via a pedestrian lane in the back. Street parking, municipal services, and pet-friendly zoning check every practical box. Neighbourhood highlights are within walking reach - Queen West energy, local cafés like The Federal, groceries at FreshCo, and 24hr transit service on both Queen and Dundas - all in a place where walking feels natural, and cycling comes effortlessly, with scores to match. Schools, parks, banks, and everyday essentials fall within a 15-minute radius. This is a home for those who seek more than space - who seek place. Thoughtfully composed, quietly confident - a home that gets the details right, and makes it feel effortless.
