9 Metcalfe St

Walk into the front door from this circa 1880 heritage front porch and immediately you will fall in love. Filled with charm and character. High ceilings. Open concept living - dining room with crown mouldings, original ceiling medallions, and wall panel detailing. Original staircase with runner. Note the spectacular marble fireplace mantel (used frequently with fire logs). Stained glass throughout. Beautifully updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances (including every cook's dream Wolf stove), granite countertops, and shaker-style cabinetry. Walk out through French patio doors to the deck in the small and easy-to-care-for backyard courtyard. There is a total of 1,688 square feet above grade (+640 sq ft in the finished lower level). The second floor has the most spectacular family room space at the front of the house with open bookcases and gas fireplace. Arguably will be your favourite room to spend evenings in. Glamorous green marble-clad main bathroom and two other bedrooms are found on this level (the house has four bedrooms, including the one in the lower level). Ascend to the third floor, and you'll love the scale of the primary bedroom. Easily accommodates a king-sized bed. Wall-to-wall closets, by California Closets, will easily fit your wardrobe. The beautifully updated ensuite bathroom was done in harmony with the design of this period home. Best of all, step out and onto the brand-new private rooftop deck and embrace the urban lifestyle. This is your outdoor escape, perfect for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or stargazing under the open sky. The finished lower level has a recreation room, 4-piece bathroom with cedar sauna ("as is" condition), extra bedroom, and utility room. Beyond your front door, vibrant Cabbagetown beckons. Stroll to charming cafes, eclectic shops, and lush parks. Immerse yourself in the rich history and artistic spirit of this coveted neighbourhood.
