This place is a gem, I really loved it. It took a little getting used to, mostly because the access is up a steep narrow external stair, but once you are up there it felt to me like being in a tree house. You enter through the bedroom, which has big darkening shades and an excellent mattress, a great place to sleep. I was there during some hot summer days, and was able to open enough windows to get welcome night breezes passing through. The living room was large enough for me to practice Tai Chi in, and has its own little bay window, a nice spot to sit and read. The bathroom is also well ventilated, has a tub and shower and good big mirrors over the sink. The kitchen is well supplied and well organized, a very practical place to cook. The best part of the whole place, in my opinion, is the breakfast nook off the kitchen, which has windows on 3 sides overlooking the trees and the street. It catches both morning and evening sun, and works equally well as a dining spot for 1 or 2 people and as a work space between meals. The apartment can also be accessed by an internal stair from the front entrance to the building (though the lock box is at the back staircase entrance), and shares a floor with the apartment of someone who lives there full time. The layout is unusual and can be confusing, but once you are in it is very functional and a delight. A half block walk west takes you to Roncesvalles Ave., which has many restaurants and small food stores. About 4 to 5 blocks to the west is the huge High Park, boasting lakes, a zoo, many wonderful old trees, and Shakespeare in the park. I got immediate responses from the owners when I needed anything and Tasleem was very kind and helpful. Highly recommended.
