Description
Legal Duplex with Strong Income Potential on a corner lot! This well-maintained, fully vacant upper unit offers an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to live comfortably while generating rental income from the already-tenanted lower unit. Each unit features 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a full kitchen, separate entrance, and dedicated parking. The property also features a standalone double car garage, providing valuable additional space and convenience. The upper unit is move-in ready, allowing the new owner to make it their home while benefiting from rental income from the lower unit. Ideally located close to schools, shopping, parks, public transit, and major highway access, this property offers the perfect combination of homeownership, income potential, and long-term investment value. A fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, or anyone looking to offset their mortgage while owning a versatile income property. (id:63161)

Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Land Transfer Tax is the Ontario provincial schedule, before any first-time buyer refund; only the City of Toronto charges a municipal land transfer tax on top, so none applies in the areas this site covers (Ontario Ministry of Finance, ontario.ca/document/land-transfer-tax, as of October 28, 2026). Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
