$1.2 million for a Cabbagetown Victorian

A four-bedroom Cabbagetown Victorian steps from bustling Parliament Street.

The homeowner is an avid art collector. Sure, it may not all be to your taste (the bedroom full of nudes might make visiting in-laws a touch uncomfortable) but at least you’ll know you’re buying this home from a true aesthete and patron of the arts.

A raft of attractive design details. Check out the wrought iron front gates, the stained glass windows in the living room and a master bedroom window bench that’s ideal for enjoying your morning coffee.

The hallway entrance feels a tad narrow and, at 15.92 feet wide, you can’t exactly play football indoors. Still, we’ll always take a slightly smaller home full of character over a bland McMansion.
