About 1171 Queen St W, Toronto
Living from 1169 – 1171 Queen Street West, you will enjoy a home nestled between Liberty Village and the charming residential neighbourhood known as Little Portugal. With many cafes, restaurants, and quaint shops along Queen Street and Dundas Street West, this area offers an urban experience that is more relaxed and ‘old-worldy’ compared to the bustle of downtown, but there are still local thrills such as The Drake Hotel. With growing opportunities for new businesses, the area is attracting many young ‘hip’ professionals in the art and design industries, with connections to nearby Liberty Village. The convenient TTC along Queen Street and King Street give residents easy access to the excitements of downtown including the Entertainment District and Toronto’s Financial District. Some local hangouts worth checking out include Nuit Social for lovers of cheese and wine, Wrongbar for a laid-back joint for live music and dance nights, and Duggan’s Brewery Parkdale for a bright brewpub with comfort food.
For nearby grocery stores, you can find several along Queen Street and King, including FreshCo, West End Food Co-op, Kings Food Market, as well as Metro in Liberty Village.
If you are someone who likes to lie out in the grass, there are several parks in the area, but most notably Trinity Bellwoods on Queen Street, which is a great spot for all kinds of outdoor recreation from baseball to picnics.
