This Toronto home for sale hasn't changed hands for half a century

The last time 13 Cliff St. was up for sale, it was 1975.

Canada had just switched to the metric system. Wearing a seatbelt had only recently become law in Ontario. And the CN Tower? Freshly finished and not yet surrounded by condos.

A lot has changed in the last 50 years — but step inside this three-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow, and it feels like time hit pause somewhere around the era of disco and Tang.

The dining room. 

There's muted linoleum flooring in nearly every room, honey oak trim throughout, and original millwork galore.

The foyer. 

Miraculously, no popcorn ceilings — so, you win some, you lose some.

The kitchen. 

In short, this place is going to need some updating.

The family room with exposed brick walls. 

But if you can look past the aggressively '70s aesthetic, 13 Cliff St. has a lot going for it.

The basement kitchen. 

For starters, it sits on a rare double lot and boasts a finished basement with a separate entrance, second kitchen, and full bathroom.

The basement recreation room. 

Whether you need it for multi-generational living or some extra rental income, it's got potential.

The bright family room. 

The main floor features a classic layout and a bonus family room that opens onto a large, tree-lined backyard.

The backyard. 

It's also located on a quiet street close to schools, parks, and transit, including the shiny new Eglinton Crosstown LRT, making it a smart pick for families and commuters alike.

A bedroom. 

There's even a private driveway and garage, a coveted feature in any part of the city where street parking is a constant nightmare.

The primary bedroom. 

But perhaps the biggest draw here is the potential.

The main floor bathroom. 

The home is currently listed at $1,098,888, which is in line with other properties in the area. 

The kitchen. 

But with a solid renovation, comparable homes nearby have sold for upwards of $1.5 million.

A bedroom. 

And with property values in the neighbourhood doubling over the last decade, plus a major new transit line now in place, it's not hard to see where this investment could be headed.

The back of the house. 

So yes, the floors are loud. The kitchen is a time capsule. But with good bones, great location, and loads of potential, 13 Cliff St. is the kind of glow-up project that won't become a total money pit.
