648 Pape Ave

Your world is Riverdale. Your front door is on Pape. Step out the back, under the wisteria-covered pergola, through the laneway to the end of the street - and there you are at Withrow Park. Farmers market on Saturday morning, ball hockey in the afternoon, skating when the rink freezes. All of it, yours. Pape Station is four minutes away on foot. And somehow, it's quiet back there. Actually quiet. The kind of quiet you stop believing exists this close to everything. Inside, the ceilings are high and the energy is good, you can feel it even when the rooms are empty. Open flow, tons of light, a gas fireplace anchoring the space. This house has been filled with artists, musicians, and makers. Full of life, full of character, and ready for a little fresh love. Three spacious bedrooms and a 4-piece bath upstairs. Keep going and you hit the third-floor loft, its own world. It's been a beloved bedroom, coveted by everyone who's lived here. What will it be for you? The basement's hard work is already done, dug out, waterproofed, blank canvas ready. Someone gets to do the fun part. And then there's the laneway art space. Skylights pour light into a room built for creation - art, workshop, music, office, or something without a name yet. Rather have parking? It's yours to convert. The best neighbourhood, the best schools, the best Saturday mornings - usually you pay a premium just for the postal code. Here, you get all of it, and the house too.
