The stretch west of Bathurst — galleries, hotels and a younger, faster-changing strip.
West Queen West picks up where Queen West ends, running from Bathurst toward Gladstone and beyond. It changed faster than almost any strip in the city over the last twenty years, from a quiet run of furniture stores and rooming houses to a destination for design, art and hospitality. The residential fabric behind the strip is Victorian — narrow semis and rowhouses on tight lots, many divided into flats and now steadily being converted back to single-family homes. That renovation cycle is still running, which means real opportunity for buyers willing to take on work, and real variability in what you find behind a similar-looking facade.
Victorian semis and rowhouses, loft conversions, boutique mid-rise condominiums.
Younger families, design and media professionals, buyers renovating for the long term.
The 501 Queen streetcar; the Ossington and Dufferin bus routes north to the Bloor subway line.
Many houses here were divided into flats decades ago. Confirm the legal use and check for retrofit work.
