This is what Toronto's oldest continuously inhabited home looks like inside Toronto RealEstate
One of Toronto's oldest houses, built in the late 1700s or early 1800s, has the distinction of being the oldest continuously inhabited residence in the city — but for one Toronto couple, it's home.
It wasn't in great shape and had been on the market for a while. There was"broken down plaster" and"it was ripe with mold," Procter said.The realtor discouraged them but they decided they wanted to restore the home.A few years before they bought it, the previous owner discovered a log cabin under the plaster walls — before that no one knew the home's history., a United Empire Loyalist who was granted land east of the Don River in 1796.
The back of the home was falling apart and, because it was a newer addition, the couple got permission to tear it down a few years after they bought the home.
