James Bay developers—this is the property you’ve been waiting for! 9,240 sq ft (60×154) rectangular lot, R-2 (duplex) today. City zoning modernization and the OCP are increasing housing capacity here, with this site in a priority growth area. Working assumptions from City materials: base massing around 4 storeys; with community amenities or affordable units, a plausible path toward 6 storeys—always subject to design review, setbacks, parking, servicing, and approvals. The existing house is move-in ready (engineered hardwood, gas fireplace, updated kitchen), supporting hold-income or phased plans. SE-facing, fully fenced backyard with tall hedges. Beacon Hill Park, Dallas Road beaches, the Inner Harbour, cafés, groceries, restaurants, and more are all at your doorstep. Dimensions support efficient massing, simple site planning on a quiet, tree-lined block. Strong hold potential while policy evolves and permits advance. (id:46156)
