After more than 40 years with the same owner, 232 Shaw St., a bona fide 1870s showstopper and easily one of the neighbourhood's most recognizable homes, has officially hit the market. Sitting proudly at the corner of Shaw and Halton, the home's exterior looks like it was peeled straight from a Victorian novel. Live in it as your own stately Victorian? And then there's the bonus most downtown houses only dream of: a coach house, complete with its own bedroom, kitchen, and bath. Add in two-car parking — a mythical concept in West Queen West — and you've got a property that checks basically every box imaginable.
