Funny Story
Toronto Life
|April 2025
They wanted out of the rental market, so they did what comedians do best: they improvised
THE BUYERS: Kris Siddiqi, 44, and Aurora Browne, 52, both comedians.
THE STORY: Near the end of 2023, Kris, Aurora and their 14-year-old son, Sebastian, were living in a four-bedroom apartment on the Ossington strip.
Then came bad news-their landlord was planning to sell, meaning they'd have to vacate by the end of March 2024. After renting for 16 years, they'd built up some savings and were ready to break into the market. Kris and Aurora's wish list was simple: a house in the west end (preferably near the subway) with at least two bedrooms and a parking spot. They set a maximum budget of $1 million and began their search.
OPTION 1
GORE VALE AVENUE near Dundas and Bellwoods
Listed at $999,999
Sold for $1,275,000
