The main floor balances character and comfort with ease. From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed by classic details like leaded glass, wainscoting, and warm hardwood floors. The living room offers a cozy focal point with a custom electric fireplace and oversized bay windows, flowing seamlessly into the dining area and sunroom—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The sunroom, with its wraparound windows and garden views, is a serene escape drenched in natural light. Meanwhile, the bright galley kitchen is both charming and practical, complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in breakfast nook that overlooks the backyard.

Upstairs, comfort meets charm across three bright and well-sized bedrooms. The primary bedroom offers golden afternoon light and generous storage, while the second bedroom boasts garden views and calm morning sun. The third bedroom is perfect for a nursery, home office, or creative studio. A refreshed three-piece bathroom ties it all together with a glass shower and thoughtful touches that blend vintage character with modern convenience.

The lower level is full of potential—whether you need a cozy media room, a quiet workspace, or a playful rec area. Built-in shelving adds function, and recessed lighting keeps the space feeling bright. A spacious laundry area, 3-piece bathroom, and ample storage (including a large pantry closet) make this level as practical as it is comfortable. A separate side entry adds even more flexibility.

The magic continues outdoors with a professionally landscaped front and back yard, complete with an irrigation system for easy upkeep. The private backyard is a lush retreat, ideal for entertaining or unwinding in peace. A spacious deck connects seamlessly from the sunroom, offering indoor-outdoor living in one of Toronto’s most coveted neighbourhoods. A private drive and detached garage round out this exceptional South Leaside property.
