If you're on the market for a charming east end abode, newly-listed 442 Rhodes Avenue might just be what you've been looking for.
Bright and endearing, the two-story detached home is asking $799,900, and could serve as your introduction to the Greenwood-Coxwell neighbourhood -- an area that's as family-friendly as it is bubbling with breweries, restaurants, and bars.
Upon entry, you'll promptly spy a pleasant perk -- the main floor solarium, right near the front door, provides the perfect place to set up an office desk for a work-from-home setup with unmatched neighbourhood views.
The rest of the front entry foyer is lined with functional storage and shelving, before it leads you into a cozy kitchen and dining area. Light from both the front and the back of the home floods in, ensuring the space is soaked in sun, regardless of the time of day. And around the corner from the dining nook, a particularly quaint living room -- complete with an exposed brick wall -- waits boasting views of the backyard.

Up the stairs, which serve as a centrepiece in the kitchen and dining area, two principal-sized bedrooms await. As well, the second storey hosts a spa-inspired four-piece bath, wherein the day's stresses are sure to melt away once you've sunken into a tub filled with bubbles, a glass of wine in hand.
Meanwhile, down below, the finished basement is complete with a den space, which could be used as an additional bedroom, as well as a dedicated laundry room.
On the weekends, the surrounding neighbourhood will surely beckon, as Godspeed Brewery, Maha's Egyptian Brunch, and the Beaches are all just short jaunts away. And that's not to mention the mouthwatering Indian food joints that run along Gerrard Street.
And speaking of enjoying the outdoors, this sweet property has one more upside: a deep, private backyard, complete with a back deck, trees, and fencing, which boasts west-facing exposure that's perfect for sunset-watching. Imagine, as the work day ends on a brisk November afternoon, tucking out back with a glass of red to watch the sky turn orange... all while wrapped in a cozy blanket.
