Farid's place is spectacular and one of the best homes I have stayed in. It's an original red brick house in the historic neighborhood of Cabbage town. Cabbage town was established in the 1840's and most of the homes are intact. Our family of 4 stayed in the home for 2 months. The neighborhood is really idyllic and feels like you are in a time warp. There is a lovely park a few minutes walk. We were in lock down during covid so we didn't get to go to any of the restaurants but there are plenty of places around to get groceries and order in. Steak and Chops was our go to butcher. St. Lawrence market is 10 mins drive away. The home has been updated to modern standards beautifully without loosing it's old world charm and warmth. We all felt very comfortable. The kitchen was brand new and lovely. There is also a little back yard and a bbq on the deck. This is not a typical 'just for airbnb' property. The owner lives in the house and moved out when we came. Everything is immaculate and it has a very homely feel. Farid is a great host, explained everything clearly and always answered questions promptly and helped us with anything we needed. If I was to be back in Toronto I'd stay here again. The house had great wifi, sonos system all around the house and a fantastic large screen tv. It's probably not a great house with little kids as there are some steep stairs in the house. Other than that I couldn't recommend the house more.
