This main-floor Victorian condo in Summit Hill was originally designed by renowned architect Clarence H. Johnston. Inside, the 11-foot ceilings and oversized windows fill the entire space with natural light, highlighting the original wood floors and two classic tile fireplaces. It’s been refreshed with new paint throughout, and a recently updated bathroom. The front room is highly flexible and works well as a extra bedroom, home office, or den. The kitchen features a newer refrigerator and stove, while the basement offers private laundry and extra storage. Out back, a private deck opens up to a fully fenced yard. It's a solid, character-rich home in a great neighborhood, just blocks away from local shops, restaurants, salons, grocery stores, parks, and transit. The building features a newer roof, and the HOA fee covers heat, water, sanitation, lawn care, snow removal, and building exterior.
