539 Shaw Street · Apartment for Rent

This newly renovated showstopper home is set in the heart of Palmerston-Little Italy, one of Toronto's most vibrant and walkable west-end neighbourhoods. From cafes, restaurants and patios along College, to beloved parks, transit, and U of T just minutes away, this is the kind of location tenants choose for lifestyle as much as convenience. Families will appreciate access to Montrose Jr PS, Harbord Collegiate, Central Toronto Academy, and nearby Catholic options including Pope Francis and St. Mary, along with several reputable private schools only a short commute from the home. Inside, the property has undergone a complete top-to-bottom transformation-every detail new, polished, and thoughtfully designed. The main floor is a wide, open concept space anchored by stunning light-oak herringbone floors and framed by large black windows that draw in natural light. The custom kitchen is a centrepiece with its dramatic waterfall stone island, full stone backsplash, panelled b/I appliances, integrated hood enclosure, and sculptural designer lighting. It opens seamlessly into spacious living and dining areas, including a beautiful arched built-in with brass sconces-perfect as a bar, serving station, or work area. At the rear, a stylish family room features a contemporary stone-wrapped fireplace and oversized sliders that walk out to a fully fenced courtyard-private, low-maintenance, and ideal for kids, pets, or quiet evenings outdoors. Upstairs offers four comfortable bedrooms, all on one level, with the Primary Br offering a Juliette balcony & designer 4-pc ensuite. The finished lower level provides excellent flexibility with a large rec room, a separate bedroom or office, and a full bathroom-perfect for guests, nanny, or a dedicated workspace. A true rarity in this neighbourhood: a detached 2-car garage with laneway access, offering secure parking and valuable storage. Brand-new, beautifully finished, and set in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods.
