Perched above Snowdon Avenue just two blocks in from Yonge Street, this perfectly appointed family home rests with beautifully curated interiors and such a wonderful feel about it. Mature hydrangea beds line the steps that lead you to the covered front porch, where a morning coffee or evening cocktail allow you to take in the sights of your community. 

The main floor will feel noticeably wide given the 30-foot lot dimensions, with extra elbow room in both the foyer and principal spaces. The living room is enlarged with the south-facing bay window that pours in natural light from its southern exposure, adjusted by a tilt of the California shutters. The first of two wood burning fireplaces is here, the second of which is in the family room at the rear of the floor plan. 

Noticeably wide again, the dining room is fit for entertaining all of your future family gatherings with it’s generous proportions and elegant finishings. Original features of this home have been refinished, including trims, crown mouldings and hardwood flooring, presenting a more elegant and enhanced feel to this classic North Toronto home. 

Adjacent to the dining room, the kitchen holds an array of custom cabinetry, and counters are topped with durable granite countertops. Appliances have all been upgraded during the current owner’s tenure here, as noted on the lengthy list of upgrades available to be reviewed. The floor plan then expands into the incredible family room, which is as inviting and comfortable as you could hope for. It features the second wood burning fireplace, two skylights and multiple windows with California shutters overlooking the gorgeous garden setting beyond it. A thoughtful enclave for a breakfast table lies beside the main floor powder room, and a walk-out connects to the most peaceful garden setting outside. A stone patio is available for dining occasions, a grassy pitch is in place for soccer balls, and even a chaise retreat lies at the back corner under an umbrella for lazy Sunday afternoons. 

On the second floor, light fills in again with the presence of the third skylight feature of this home. The primary bedroom is set at the front of the home, perched south-facing above Snowdon, and offers two flanking walls of closets. The other two bedrooms also have California shutters, closets, and all three share access to the timelessly finished family bathroom. 

The lower level has multiple zones of highly useable space to enjoy, not to mention the incredible amount of storage. A fourth bedroom is set at the base of the stairs with slightly lowered floors and a concealed walk-in closet. The hallway then extends to the recreation room, passing by an office nook beneath an above-grade window and an updated four-piece bathroom. The recreation room is extra large, set beneath the family room addition above, and offers three huge storage closets. Completing the basement, there is a large laundry closet with full-sized machines, as well as a walk-in utility room that is lined with shelves of storage. 

Located just two blocks from Yonge Street, this home is awarded with every convenience at walking distance, from transit and shops to neighbourhood dining and daily essentials. A cherished residence, carefully maintained and thoughtfully improved, it presents a rare and confident opportunity for Toronto’s move up buyers seeking scale, character, and an enduring location.
