Our home

Rusty and George live in a three bedroom bungalow in Scarborough (Toronto’s east end). The house has a finished basement, and comes with a large, fully equipped kitchen. The location is walking distance from many shops and stores, and close to many forms of public transit. The house has multiple areas that can be used as designated work spaces.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

The area is very quiet, and is close to many great restaurants and stores. Neighbours are friendly and willing to help if needed. Public Transit is a close walk away.
