In Little Italy, location is everything - and opportunities like this are increasingly rare. Set on a deep lot with rear laneway access to parking, 542 Crawford Street offers the chance to create something exceptional in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods. Vacant and available for immediate possession, the property is ready for a full renovation and its next chapter. Currently configured as two self-contained units with separate entrances to the basement level, the layout is perfectly suited to a stunning single-family residence or a multi-unit configuration. With approximately 1,727 sq. ft. above grade plus an additional 789 sq. ft. of basement space, this is a rare opportunity to secure the neighbourhood first and build the home to your own standard, creating long-term value in a community where renovated homes command a significant premium. The deep lot and laneway access may also support laneway suite potential, subject to approvals. Step outside to College Street's renowned cafés and restaurants, Christie Pits Park, Kensington Market, Trinity Bellwoods, schools, and excellent transit. Properties combining this location, lot depth, laneway access, and vacant possession rarely come to market. Some photographs have been digitally enhanced and virtually decluttered for marketing purposes.
