Send This Listing To A FriendTucked away in a particularly quiet pocket of Birch Cliff (south of Kingston Rd), this charming family home blends timeless elegance and modern comfort. Warm and lovely in its current state, this detached home offers ample potential for customization, allowing you to transform it into your dream property steps from the Scarborough Bluffs.
As you step through the stained glass entry door, you’ll first appreciate the functional foyer with space to hide coats and muddy boots. The hardwood floors, fresh paint, and arch details on the main level set the tone for the character-filled spaces to come.
The living room is bright yet cozy, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and illuminated by a large bay window that floods it with natural light. A beautiful, arched doorway leads to the adjacent dining room. This space is perfect for family dinners and helping with school projects after swim practice (it’s due tomorrow, of course).
The heart of the home, the kitchen, boasts ample storage and workspace, complemented by warm colors and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range that will inspire culinary creativity. Whether preparing family meals or entertaining guests, this kitchen is as functional as it is inviting.
Three well-appointed bedrooms offer peaceful retreats for rest and relaxation. The first bedroom, conveniently located on the main level, features a Juliet balcony overlooking the backyard, providing a tranquil spot to unwind. The newly renovated family bathroom is in the next room. You’ll love having easy access to the indulgent soaker tub. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms offer ample space and comfort, with one boasting a 3-piece ensuite bathroom complete with a skylight.
The expansive finished basement offers endless possibilities, whether it’s a teenager’s place to escape, a guest suite (including a private bathroom), or a rec room to gather with loved ones. A gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance.
Enjoy outdoor living at its finest. The side patio is perfect for summer barbecues or a morning cup of tea, and the grassy backyard is landscaped with mature trees and bushes, perfect for outdoor play. The private front drive with space for two cars could only be improved by the addition of some chalk art.
Location is key, and this home delivers in spades. This home offers peace and privacy while remaining conveniently close to everything you need. Steps from the Scarborough Bluffs, with their breathtaking views of Lake Ontario, and close to the Waterfront Trail and numerous parkettes, this home offers endless opportunities for outdoor recreation and leisurely strolls with loved ones. The proximity to the shops and amenities along Kingston Rd makes urban living a breeze.
While this home is already a haven of comfort and charm, its location and lot size create incredible potential for those with a vision. Whether you dream of renovating and modernizing to create your personalized sanctuary or simply adding your unique touches, the possibilities are endless.
