The Annex is full of character filled old homes but 37 Spadina Rd. stands as a testament to history and charm. 

If you take a close look at the front of the house you'll notice the front staircase doesn't have the entrance to the basement yet and the second floor has an open terrace. In the photo you'll see the owners as kids as well as their dad's 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air is parked in front of the old garage, which according to the owners was torn down in the 1970s.

This home has been in the same family since the mid-1960s, according to realtor Heather Hadden. 

It was a home, witness to the laughter and adventures of a family that cherished its halls. In fact, the current owners of the home actually grew up in this house.

But, as Hadden said in the listing, over time, as the family grew and evolved, 37 Spadina Rd. transformed from a cherished family abode into an office building.
