Hidden behind a private canopy of mature trees on Astley Avenue, this detached home in North Rosedale is much larger than it might appear. A generous foyer entry with a double closet and custom niche lead into the open-concept living and dining rooms with tall ceilings, a fireplace, and large windows that bring light in from both east and west exposures. The renovated kitchen has quartzite-lined countertops and stainless-steel appliances. It is outfitted with a breakfast bar setting for a quiet cup of coffee in the morning. Adjacent to this is a tandem breakfast area with a direct walk-out to the west-facing gardens. The new deck has custom flower beds that can hold your seasonal lettuces and herbs with easy access to the kitchen.

The second floor holds two large bedrooms equipped with closets and a tandem home office with wrap-around windows that overlook the garden. It is a quiet setting for home office needs, shared only with the birds that occupy the outdoors beyond. The two bedrooms are large in scale, and one is currently utilized as a second-floor family room. The primary bedroom at the front of this floor is equipped with a large walk-in closet, and all rooms share access to the renovated four-piece bathroom.

The third floor is much larger than expected with two big bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom. The current owners removed the roofline of this floor, and large dormers were created to enlarge the overall space and function of this floor. Both bedrooms have double closets and offer tremendous light from both the skylight and the carefully positioned new windows. A beautiful three-piece bathroom finishes this level.

The basement is mainly unfinished, but the possibilities for future use are endless. There are many storage rooms and closets, a large laundry room, a three-piece bathroom, and a separate entrance that connects to the backyard.

A garage lies towards the back of the property but serves mainly as outdoor storage for the current homeowners. The home is positioned just one block from Chorley Park and within walking distance of Summerhill Market and the neighbouring vendors on Summerhill. 32 Astley Avenue is a discreet home with a world of opportunity in Toronto’s most sought-after neighbourhood that is not to be missed!
