Property Details

• Price: $474,900

Beautifully renovated three-storey semi-detached home in prime Riverdale! This family home is located in between Riverdale and Withrow Parks on a quiet tree-lined street in Toronto's hottest east-end neighbourhood. With an open concept main floor, chef's kitchen and four bedrooms including a dream third floor master suite with walk-out to a magnificent tree-top deck, this home offers the best of both worlds – a loft style alternative (low maintenance yard), with the advantages of freehold homeownership. It's ideally suited for professional couples and young families. What an excellent opportunity to enjoy a turnkey lifestyle in a lovely urban community!

Situated close to the Danforth just east of Broadview Avenue, homeowners have excellent access to transportation. Walk to Broadview or Chester subway stations, or take the car to Lakeshore Boulevard and the Gardiner Expressway, both a 5 minutes' drive, and Gerrard or Dundas or Eastern Avenue for quick trips downtown. Additionally, the Don Valley Parkway connects commuters and cottage-goers to all major highway routes in the area.

The Danforth is home to Toronto's largest Greek community which is renowned for its outstanding dining opportunities. There are also a variety of specialty stores, bars and coffee shops including the Big Carrot Natural Food Market in the Carrot Common, and Revue Video. For those who prefer the selection of big box stores, both Home Depot and Winners can be found nearby on Gerrard Street. Chinatown, with its abundance of grocery, dining and shopping opportunities, is a short ride south via the Broadview streetcar.

Minutes away, Withrow Park serves as a gathering place and offers a hockey rink, baseball diamond, tennis courts, a wading pool and is popular with kids and dog owners. Riverdale Park, at the Broadview end of Tennis, offers plenty of greenspace and hosts various recreational sports leagues, as well as serving as a gateway to a greenbelt – the Moore Park Ravine, Don River Park, and Rosedale Valley Ravine. Both public and Catholic schools can be found in the area plus the Toronto Public Libraries Pape/Danforth branch. Demonstrating the commitment of homeowners in the immediate area, there is a neighbourhood watch program in effect.

The home itself combines traditional charm and character with modern amenities and is tastefully decorated and ready to move right in! The low-maintenance front yard has been landscaped with numerous perennials and an old fashioned front porch. There is a walk out to the generous trellised back deck via the kitchen. The rear yard is very private and unique with the oversized deck and is perfect for outdoor play, relaxing or entertaining.

The open concept living/dining room features halogen pot lights, hardwood floors and a candle filled decorative fireplace with mantel, as well as classic plate rail. A central wired sound system on this level as well as the second floor ensures great music throughout the house, perfect for entertaining or family use. The renovated kitchen features maple cabinets, ceramic flooring, granite counters, and five top-of-line appliances installed to maximize the space. On the second level, the rear bedroom is separated by a den/office space to optimize privacy – though this well-lit space could convert to a fourth bedroom. Sparkling hardwood floors complete all the bedrooms, while newer berber broadloom on the stairs ensures hazard-free landings for little ones. Enjoy comfort-adding touches with a wood burning fireplace and built-in shelving in the front bedroom, old fashioned tin ceiling, crown mouldings and large double closet in the back bedroom. A modern four piece bathroom with whirlpool tub, decorated in chic black & white tile, serves this level.

The spectacular third floor master retreat is an escape from the grind. It features a huge cathedral ceilinged bedroom with built-in storage, window seat, two closets and a stunning glass enclosed shower stall and separate “water closet” ensuite, with double French doors opening out onto a fully fenced spacious private rooftop deck surrounded by a delightful canopy of greenery, with a hose available for watering!

The home has been thoughtfully renovated and features upgraded mechanics. Additional benefits of this lovely home include: easily obtained street permit parking, high and dry basement currently being used for exercise and storage, new central air conditioning, newly improved water main from the street, and newly painted neutral decor.

Offered at $474,900.
