Taken back to the bricks, this outstanding three-bedroom home in Christie Pits has enjoyed a meticulous renovation by the current owners. The longest list of improvements will dazzle you with detail, thoroughness and surprise, as the owners went above and beyond the standard scope of work to ensure this home would allow for a lifetime of enjoyment. A newly paved front walk leads to the covered front porch that overlooks the pretty perennial front garden beds.
The main floor opens to an impressive open-concept space with voice-activated lighting, new hardwood floors (and subfloors!), structural beams, windows, hardware, stairs, kitchen, appliances….the list is virtually endless. Every part of the renovation was overseen and approved with care and precision. The kitchen with a quartz waterfall countertop and stainless appliances is expanded by the wall of glass that slides open and connects the indoors with the landscaped rear garden. Dine, entertain, and play on the patio area and turfed garden, then step right into your oversized garage with lane access.
The second floor holds three generous bedrooms, a renovated bathroom, a skylight, sun tube, customized closets, and again new floors, sub floors, windows, drywall….every level has it all.
The basement was professionally lowered, a new insulated floor slab was installed and a walk-out was added. The walls were waterproofed, HVAC was cleverly designed to avoid bulkheads, and a kitchen was roughed in for potential future needs. The walls and attic were re-insulated, and there is Rockwool sound insulation between all floors. Exterior cladding has been done, drains under the house and to the city connections replaced, new backflow valve, sump pump, new gutters, downspouts, roof and fascia. This is essentially a new home, and all permits were obtained and closed.
