The Details
A Desirable 'Dream-Sicle'
It’s time for another truest on Lewis, my friends! It’s time for another Truest on Lewis, my friends! The moment your foot graces the snowy front porch and painted brick facade, you’re greeted by possibilities. Winsome & likable – and darn irresistible. You know the type – the perfect best friend to cheer up those February blues: light-hearted, warm, inviting, trusting, and unpretentious (we respect a humble brag around here)! Whispering of its exceptional locale and close-knit community, this Leslieville heart-tugger beckons the home dreamers, the achievers, and the family makers. Here, every corner, every edge, carries a promise just for you—bright & airy spaces, hints of exposed brick, sun-drenched afternoons in your oversized kitchen (bye-bye condo cooking), and a generous backyard for a real-deal summer soiree, a little pup in training or maybe some amateur green-thumbing types? Subtle touches of black accents, rich walnuts, white marble, and brushed brass metals? Absolutely. Plus, big-time ceiling heights to boost size & scale over two floors (you’ll have to see it to believe it), bright washrooms fitted with contemporary finishes (including a rare main floor powder), pretty & cozy bedrooms and a finished lower-level flex space perfect for movie nights or a work-from-home private nook. Whether it’s an investment for the future or a property for the present, the choice remains yours! This desirable ‘dream-sicle’ is smack in an unbeatable Leslieville pocket on the up and up – a walkable, bikeable and supremely likeable with a touch of that old-school magic where your neighbours have your back (and you do theirs)!
Your home should tell a story of who you are and be a collection of what you love.

Be sure to check out Hailed Coffee, Dineen Outpost and Pilot Coffee Roasters for a robust coffee culture!
Prioritize your well-being with Leslieville’s diverse range of state-of-the-art gyms, yoga studios, and wellness centres, ensuring your health and fitness goals never take a back seat. The accessibility to these facilities makes maintaining a healthy lifestyle not just a goal but a reality. We personally love Move Fitness, Primal and One Academy when we’re on the East Side (not to mention great access to the endless running & biking trails through the Don River).
Benefit from this prime location, which provides unbeatable access to public transit and ensures seamless connectivity and quick navigation through the city. Proximity to major routes and diverse transport options make commuting a breeze, offering you the ultimate convenience and freeing your time to indulge along the local streets lined with boutique stores, art galleries, and cultural venues, including Dianna Witte Gallery, The Opera House & the Broadview Flower Market to name a few!
