Believe it or not, this home was built as a triplex in 1956.

But at some point, a family turned this into a single-family home, which in this current market is a bit of a tragedy.

In case you've been ignoring the state of Toronto'srental and real estate market, there's a housing supply shortage andrent prices are hitting all-time highs.

All that is to say, we coulduse more multi-residential homes in the GTA.

But single-family home or triplex, this home has a lot to offer for its$2,999,000 listing price.

The library.

The custom-built home has over 4,000 square feet of living space and offers six bedrooms and four bathrooms.

The upstairs landing.

It's also sun-filled and has plenty of charming retro details that add character to the home.

The dining room.

You'll notice wainscotting, arched entryways, intricate medallions, original fireplaces, parquet wood flooring and mid-century details like the stair banisters.

The combined living and family room.

The main floor is open concept with combined living and family rooms.

The home has built-in storage.

The dining room has French doors.

The primary ensuite bathroom.

However, the home is being sold in an "as is" condition.

So while some elements are charming, others are very dated and in immediate need of replacement.

The bar area in the kitchen.

For example, the kitchen is right out of the 50s with the dark wood cabinets and red melamine counters.

The appliances likely haven't been updated since the 80s or 90s just by looking at them.

A bedroom.

Upstairs you'll find the bedrooms.

The primary bedroom with a fireplace.

The primary bedroom was probably once a living room as it's massive.

The office area in the primary bedroom.

It also has an office, a six-piece ensuite and a walk-out to the balcony.

Another bedroom that's being used as an office.

The other bedrooms on the upper floor aren't as large but they're decent.

A bedroom in the basement.

Finally, since this house was a triplex, it has a one-bedroom basement apartment with large windows and two walk-outs.

The backyard.

There's also a decently-sized backyard and enough parking for seven cars.

The back of the house.

If this was turned back into a triplex, it could be a solid income property – especially considering the average rent for just a one-bedroom apartment is over $2,300 a month.
