Welcome to 38 Queen Street, a former church turned home in the heart of Norwood. Its history gives it character you won’t find in a typical house, and it’s a very versatile property. It’s fully updated, and the flexible layout can change as your life does.

The main floor is bright and open, with plenty of room for family dinners, busy weeknights and weekend get-togethers. You come in through a wheelchair-accessible front entrance and a new foyer with extra closet space, so coats, boots and everyday clutter finally have a home.

The fully finished lower level has its own entrance at the rear of the property, which gives it real privacy from the main floor. It has a full kitchen, a comfortable living room, a full bathroom and plenty of space to add large bedrooms.

That flexibility opens up a lot of possibilities. You could live on one level and rent out the other to help with the mortgage, bring parents or adult children home while everyone keeps their own space, or simply enjoy having extra room to spread out. A two-unit setup is subject to the necessary approvals.

The big updates are already done. The home has a new furnace, added R60 insulation in the ceilings, updated electrical and plumbing, two new washrooms, a dedicated laundry area, central vacuum, a new front door, and new fencing and gates.

With its one-of-a-kind history, separate front and rear entrances, a move-in ready interior and years of updates behind it, 38 Queen Street is ready for whatever comes next.

📍38 Queen Street, Asphodel-Norwood 
Offered for $629,900
Open House: Friday 5:30 - 7pm and Sunday 11 -1pm

Thank you, Bronte! 🧡

For our Thanksgiving Food Drive, we asked our neighbours to leave a bag of non‑perishables on the porch for us to collect. Everyone was incredibly generous this year, and every item is going to Fare Share Food Bank to help Oakville families this season.

A huge thank you to Oakville Fire Station 3 for helping us unload it all. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Want to keep the giving going? Here’s how you can help:

A custom bungaloft, five minutes from the lake. 🌿

1551 Warland Road is in the heart of South Oakville, a short walk to Coronation Park and the shores of Lake Ontario. It has over 5,700 sq ft of finished living space, and every inch of it feels considered.

Coffered ceilings, big picture windows and rich hardwood set the tone on the main floor. The kitchen is a cook’s dream, with JennAir appliances, dual dishwashers, a gas range under a custom hood, and a butler’s pantry and servery leading to the dining room.

The primary suite is on the main level, which so many buyers are looking for right now. The bathrooms have quartz counters, glass showers and heated floors.

Downstairs there’s a custom wet bar, a w**e room and a dedicated exercise room. Out back, a covered patio with a fireplace, a custom pizza oven and a built in barbecue makes this a home built for hosting.
This is the kind of home I love talking about: thoughtful craftsmanship, room to entertain, and a location you can’t recreate.

Some homes announce themselves. This one waits behind the gates. 🌿

433 Allan Street is a newly renovated cottage in Southeast Oakville. It has 9 ft ceilings, skylights, rich hardwood and custom millwork throughout, and a chef inspired kitchen that makes you want to have people over.

The primary suite is made for slow mornings, with a spa inspired ensuite and its own private outdoor space. Out back there’s an outdoor kitchen with a pizza oven, a fire bowl and a hot tub.

What makes it rare is the flexibility. There’s a finished lower level with a separate entrance, plus a detached garden suite that works as a guest house, studio, office or nanny suite.

And you’re steps from the waterfront, the marina and everything downtown Oakville has to offer.

This is the kind of home I love talking about: character, light and space that adapts as your life does.

Last night Gabriela Baric | Realtor ® and I took the kids for a walk down to Bronte harbour.

We do this a lot. It’s a short walk from her house and a short walk from mine.

And every time, we say the same thing. We are so lucky to live here.

The water. The trails. The restaurants you can walk to. Neighbours who actually stop and say hi.

Bronte just has a feel to it. Hard to explain until you’re standing here on a warm night with your kids running ahead of you.

Thinking about this pocket of Oakville? Send me a message. I’d love to tell you all about it.

Everyone reported the wrong July number.

The headline was “prices down 4.5%.” Fine. But here is the one that actually matters: new listings across the GTA fell 17.8% compared to last July, while sales stayed flat.

Fewer homes. Same buyers. You know where that goes.

Slide 1 is Toronto, slide 2 is Oakville. A few things worth knowing:

Toronto is not one market. Semi-detached homes sold at 101% of asking in an average of 24 days. Condos, meanwhile, are the softest they have been in years, with the benchmark down 7.09% and over 5,000 units sitting active. Same city, opposite experiences.

Oakville is holding its premium at a $1.41M average, but buyers are taking their time. Listings averaged 38 days to sell with about five months of inventory. Real value, real patience required.

If you are buying, your window is still open. It is just narrower than it was in the spring, and it is closing fastest on low-rise.

If you are selling this fall, you have less competition on the shelf than you did a year ago. That is a genuine advantage, but only if the price is right from day one.

Averages will not match your street. Send me a DM with your neighbourhood and I will pull your actual numbers.

SOLD | 170 Cowan Ave, Toronto✨

Some homes just have a soul. Built in the 1880s as a church manse, this Victorian came with pressed tin ceilings, stained glass, original hardwood, and an 1881 claw-foot tub still going strong.

A home like this doesn’t just get listed. It gets understood.

Here’s what went into the sale:
A plan before a price, plus a pre-listing inspection
Fresh paint and smart touch-ups that let the original details shine
Professional staging, photography, and video
A targeted social push and busy open houses
Negotiation from a position of strength

The result? The right buyer, clean terms, and a number our sellers were thrilled with.

Congratulations to our clients.

The GTA market is quietly turning a corner, and June’s numbers prove it.

Here’s what’s happening in your neighbourhood right now:

📍 Toronto: The average price sits around $1.08M, but here’s the real story. GTA home sales jumped 9.4% year over year while new listings dropped nearly 13%. Buyers still have room to negotiate, but that cushion is shrinking fast.

📍 Oakville: Steady and strong, with an average price around $1.45M and 297 homes sold in June. Detached homes are anchoring the top end near $1.81M, while condos remain a smart entry point around $694K.

The takeaway? Whether you’re buying or selling, this is a market that rewards a plan, not waiting on the sidelines. The window for easy wins is narrowing.

Swipe through for the full breakdown 👉 and if you’re wondering what this means for your home or your next move, send me a DM. No pressure, just a friendly conversation.
