About the Property
It is difficult to argue with the quality of life in Lawrence Park. And especially for the those that no longer need or want a four-bedroom home with large yard but aren’t yet ready for condo living. That’s life at 116A Wanless Avenue – plenty of living space plus two massive master retreats (with ensuite) and a private bedroom with bath in the finished basement.
Inside, the heart of the home, the kitchen makes an excellent impression with the function to create a love affair that will last and last. Downsize without giving up the ability to entertain and/or host large family gatherings. There is ample counter and cooking space, with high-end custom cabinetry, an exceptional island perfect for gatherings along with a separate eating area and desk nook. The kitchen space overlooks the family room with stone gas fireplace, bright, large windows and a walkout to the backyard.
Though the home is newer, there is character at every turn, thanks to the wood floors and extensive crown moulding. Upstairs you will find two master suites, each with ensuite. Skylights on the second floor bring natural light. Also, downstairs, you will discover a full finished basement with a bedroom and a full bath for guests.
Outside, yards in the front and back are low maintenance, and there is a well cared for flower garden. The home also has parking with legal front parking pad for one car.

About the Neighbourhood and Lifestyle
Lawrence Park is an established Toronto neighbourhood that is known for being a family-oriented community with beautiful homes, tree-lined streets, parks at every turn and a prime location close to the subway and 401.
Walk to the subway and head downtown to the action. Walk up to the restaurants and shops along Lawrence. Head to the library or pick up some groceries at the Metro.
While there are several qualities that make Lawrence Park an excellent place to live, what makes it so unique in day-to-day life is its tight-knit community. This is an area where neighbours are on a first name basis.
Lawrence Park
Once ranked the wealthiest neighbourhood in all of Canada (in 2011), Lawrence Park residents are generally well-heeled professionals, single families and the socialites of Toronto. It’s not hard to see why people have been so willing to invest and settle down in the Lawrence Park area, as it consistently maintains its garden suburb qualities that set it apart from many Toronto neighbourhoods.
