The brief
About 133 Cowan Ave
133 Cowan Ave is a 3+1-bedroom, 4-bathroom duplex in South Parkdale, Toronto, listed for sale at an asking price of $1,699,000 (MLS® W13076344).
Rarely offered, fully renovated rowhouse duplex with accessory unit. Taken back to the studs in 2020, this turnkey legal property offers three self-contained suites, ideal for investors seeking stable returns, also for end users looking for a live-in, rent-out opportunity, significantly broadening buyer appeal. Thoughtfully designed for low-maintenance ownership, each unit features modern finishes, quality appliances, and private entrances. The upper two-level 2-bedroom + den suite is currently tenanted, along with the stylish main floor 1-bedroom offering a walkout to a private backyard. The lower-level 1-bedroom, currently owner-occupied, boasts high ceilings, two separate entrances, and a bright, contemporary layout. Includes one front pad parking space. Tucked away on a quiet street in South Parkdale, just steps to transit, parks, shops, and the Lake, this is a rare opportunity to own a fully renovated, income-generating property in a high-demand rental location.
