Description

We are away for school year 2026-2027 on own sabbatical. We have a fabulous tudor-style detached 4 BR / 1 1/2 bath home in Toronto with private parking, garage, fenced yard, close to all shops and public transport but feels like it is in an oasis near the Humber River with wonderful neighbors in our private tree-lined Laneway. Bloor West Village / Old Millside is a wonderful in city neighborhood just steps from the river parkland (Humber River near Old Mill) but a 5 min walk to Subway and only 30 min to Univ of Toronto or TM Univ. 50 minutes direct on the Jane Street Express Bus or 35 min drive to York U. This is the 20 year beloved home of a UofT faculty member and his partner and 3 kids. Perfect for a family with wonderful schools including French Immersion at our local elementary (Humbercrest PS). Closest subway is Jane Station. Map us! location: close to intersection of Rivercrest Rd and Weatherell St in the heart of Old Millside. Check out beautiful Etienne Brule park just a few minutes from our door where the Humber River runs under the lovely historic bridge and trails abound. Walk to trendy shops, food purveyors, green grocers and restaurants, independent bookstores, clothing boutiques and more along Bloor St. NO visits please. Contact via platform only.
