61 Seaton Street: semi-detached house for sale
$1,329,000
From the listing brokerage
A truly one-of-a-kind architectural home in the heart of downtown Toronto. Designed by architect Paul Reuber, 61 Seaton Street is a remarkable example of contemporary infill architecture, thoughtfully conceived for its distinctive triangular corner lot. Set within a streetscape of historic homes, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence is an inspired blend of bold modern design, warmth and livability.From the street, the home's unusual geometry gives little away. Inside, unexpectedly generous living spaces unfold, with carefully positioned horizontal windows drawing natural light deep into the home while maintaining a wonderful sense of privacy. Reuber's original vision remains remarkably intact, including colour-blocked walls, vivid bathroom tile and the iconic all-red shower.A bespoke two-storey bookcase, designed by Lebel & Bouliane, forms a striking architectural centrepiece, with integrated storage, shelving and a window seat. Featured in Designlines magazine, it reflects the thoughtful craftsmanship and individuality found throughout.The lower level offers a beautifully conceived private studio unit, integral to the original design rather than a conventional basement conversion. Partially below grade, it features a full-height window and glass door, creating a bright, private and versatile retreat ideal for a studio, workspace, guest space or creative extension of the home.With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 1-car parking and a separate studio unit, this is a rare opportunity for those seeking an architecturally significant home with flexibility. Thoughtful updates have respected the original design, preserving its character, idiosyncrasies and integrity.Ideally situated at the meeting point of Cabbagetown, Moss Park and east downtown, close to parks, restaurants, cultural destinations, the King East Design District, TTC, bike routes and the upcoming Ontario Line Moss Park Station. Original, considered and unlike anything else.

What it costs to buy 61 Seaton Street
At the asking price of $1,329,000, a buyer pays two land transfer taxes on closing: the Ontario tax and the City of Toronto's municipal tax. Both apply to every home inside the City.
| Asking price | $1,329,000 |
|---|---|
| Ontario land transfer tax | $23,055 |
| Toronto municipal land transfer tax | $23,055 |
| Both taxes | $46,110 |
| First-time buyer relief, if you qualify | up to $8,475 |
| Minimum down payment | $107,900 |
The down payment figure is the federal minimum: 5 percent of the first $500,000 and 10 percent of the rest. A lender can ask for more. These figures use the asking price, so they change if you pay more or less. Legal fees, title insurance and adjustments are extra: ask your lawyer for a written quote. This is general information, not legal or tax advice. Confirm the figures with a lawyer or accountant. You can change the price in our land transfer tax calculator and our mortgage calculator.
What it costs to own each month
| Property tax (2026) | $6,545 a year, about $545 a month |
|---|
That is before a mortgage payment, home insurance and utilities. The listing shows no monthly maintenance fee, so upkeep of the building and the lot is the owner's own cost.
How the asking price compares
TRREB recorded 159 semi-detached house sales in the City of Toronto in August 2026, at a median price of $981,000 and an average of $1,110,639. This home is listed at $1,329,000, which is $348,000 above that median.
The median covers every neighbourhood, size and condition in the City of Toronto, so it is a reference point and not a valuation of this home. Location, size, lot, parking and condition all move the price. Our Toronto house prices page has the figures for every home type.
What to check before you make an offer
- Book a home inspection. An inspector looks at the roof, foundation, wiring, plumbing and heating. The listing gives the heating as forced air.
- Have a lawyer search the title. A title search shows mortgages, liens and easements registered against the property. Ask whether a survey exists and whether it matches the lot on the listing, 1.18 by 75.4 feet.
- Ask about permits. Ask which renovations had building permits and whether those permits were closed. The listing shows 2 kitchens. If there is a second unit, ask whether it meets the municipality's rules for one.
- Confirm what is included. Appliances, light fixtures and window coverings are included only if the agreement says so. Ask whether the water heater or furnace is rented.
- Get your financing in writing. A lender looks at the property tax and heating costs as well as the price.
- See it in person. Photos do not show noise, light at different hours or the state of the street and the homes beside it.
Our first-time home buyer guide and our page for buyers walk through each step. This is general information, not legal advice. Confirm the details with a lawyer.
