case study:

corso italia semi

Solid brick from tip to toe. Original doors and mouldings. Fantastic location, floor plan and square footage. A perfect property to flip.

Zoë fell in love with this one and snapped it up the first day it came on the market. This century old semi in Toronto’s other Little Italy, Corso Italia, had such fabulous bones and hidden assets waiting to be discovered!

the kitchen

The painted brick made for a unique and inexpensive backsplash.

Zoë did all design, construction and installation of the custom (bulkhead, spice rack, open shelves and cubbies) and prefab cabinetry (lower and upper cabinets with doors). A prep table from a wholesale restaurant supplier makes a great kitchen island and finishes off the space.

the basement

The lower level was large enough to split into a generous income or in-law suite and a large family room. The best of both worlds!

the 2nd floor hall

Exposing brick is a lovely way to showcase the history of a home and increase it’s value!

the main floor

the principal bedroom

A new closet for two helped keep the spacious main bedroom open and airy. The new partial wall created a natural office nook.
