Inside a modern Victorian in Rosedale that sold for half a million over asking

The three-storey Victorian at 88 Shaftesbury Ave. is classic on the outside and effortlessly modern on the inside. This home, which was designed by architect Trevor Wallace, was originally listed for $2.495 million. It ended up being purchased for $529,000 over the asking price for a cool $3.024 million.

This property is located just down the street from Yonge in the coveted Rosedale neighbourhood. Inside, you’ll find four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The owner’s suite is particularly noteworthy thanks to its private sundeck and luxe ensuite bathroom.
