An adorable one-bedroom detached Toronto house is only $700,000

While it seems weird for a whole house to only have a single bedroom, 285 Chisholm Ave. is just that – a one-bedroom, one-bathroom house. 

But she is cute and only $699,000, which, fun fact, is a $100,000 discount from its original listing price of $799,000. 

This charming little bungalow could be a great condo alternative. It's had a ton of upgrades, too, making it a great cozy home for minimalists. 

The view into the kitchen from the living room. 

Inside, you'll find a bright main floor with an open-concept layout. 

The living room and front entrance. 

The living room is small but has a big bay window and an old fireplace mantel, which is a perfect decor opportunity. 

The kitchen. 

The living room flows into the modern kitchen. 

The kitchen is small but practical. 

The kitchen comes complete with a breakfast bar to maximize prep space. 

An office space in the basement. 

There are also shiny new maple hardwood floors throughout. 

The bedroom. 

The bedroom is at the back of the house. It has two closets and a walkout to the deck and backyard. 

The backyard. 

The backyard is probably the best part of this house, as 285 Chisholm Ave. is on a deep 122.5-foot lot.

A view back to the house. 

The deep lot means there's plenty of space for gardening or building an extension on the house, should you choose to do so. 

The deck off the bedroom. 

There's also a newly built deck that was completed in 2023. 

The rec room in the basement has wood-panelled ceilings. 

There's more living space in the basement, which was renovated in 2021. 

The bathroom. 

Need a home office? Check. A rec room for movie nights? Absolutely. It’s like having a whole extra living area to play with.

The front porch. 

Location-wise, this bungalow is close to the hustle and bustle of the Danforth as well as having excellent transit links. The home may be small, but Taylor Creek Park is literally a block away if you need to stretch your legs.
