Our home is a bright and comfortable, fully furnished, equipped and updated 1880s townhouse on Toronto's downtown west side. Although we have no reviews on Sabbatical Homes, we have been hosting guests on Airbnb for more than 10 years, and enjoy a very high rating and reviews. Our place is ideal for 1 person, 1-2 couples or a small family. We can configure as a 1-bedroom, 1,000 sq-foot unit over 2 floors ($3,100 per month) OR a 2-bedroom, 1500 sq-foot home over three floors ($3,500 per month). Whichever you choose, you will be the only guests in the house. We're very well-located for any academic connected to the University of Toronto or Toronto Metropolitan University, the former within walking distance and the latter easily reachable on a single streetcar ride. We are also very close to Toronto Western Hospital, and the cluster of hospitals on University Ave such as the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto General, Princess Margaret's and Mount Sinai. The bright, spacious office makes it ideal for anyone performing remote work of any kind. Vibrant, family-friendly neighbourhood with quiet streets, parks and playgrounds, plenty of restaurants, galleries and night life: 5-min walk to Little Italy, Little Portugal and Ossington St nightlife. 10-min bike ride to Chinatown and Kensington Market, Koreatown and the Annex. Streetcar and buses are a 2-minute walk; it's four bus stops to the subway. Metro supermarket is 3 blocks away. Dufferin Mall is a 10 minute walk. There is a YMCA with pool, squash courts and full fitness facilities at the end of our street. Please note that there is no on-site parking, though inexpensive on-street parking permits are easily available online. Outdoor spaces are not furnished in the winter months. The house is attached to neighbours on both sides, but is well-insulated for sound, especially in the sleeping quarters. Average heat and hydro in winter are $300 a month for the whole house and are negotiable.
