Local notes
Romanesque houses near the university
The Annex stretches from Bloor Street north to Dupont, between Bathurst and Avenue Road, with the University of Toronto on its doorstep and Casa Loma on the hill just beyond. It is known for big red-brick and sandstone houses on streets such as Admiral Road, Madison Avenue and Lowther Avenue, in the style Torontonians call the Annex house.
Homes in The Annex
Late-Victorian Romanesque Revival and Queen Anne houses, many divided into apartments, plus low-rise and mid-century apartment buildings along Bloor, Spadina and St. George.
-
Radiators, tall baseboards and big sash windows are typical here; hand-wiped baseboards and interior windows can be added at booking.
-
Original features such as stained glass, carved banisters and tiled fireplaces are dusted and wiped by hand; flag anything fragile in your booking notes.
-
Student rentals turn over around the university year; once the lease date is set, choose a move-out time from the open slots on the booking form.
