The 1 Dundee Drive Estate Residence. A rare estate styled corner property with unmatched depth, privacy, and architectural flexibility. Commanding a coveted 57 x 122 ft corner property facing the uninterrupted greens of Sentinel Park and a flood-lit baseball diamond, this residence offers a level of land value, natural light, and privacy that is almost never available within Toronto's urban grid. Mature evergreens, sculpted gardens, and multiple outdoor zones create a serene estate-like presence that feels worlds away from the city - yet moments from transit, York University, Downsview and Sentinel Park, nature trails and community amenities. Uniquely configured as a dual-residence estate, the home delivers exceptional versatility for multi-generational living, income generation, or lifestyle expansion. The ground-level above-grade residence is a fully independent 2-bedroom suite - bright, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with its own kitchen, dining area, 3-piece washroom, private laundry, and dedicated storage. With Toronto-approved STR eligibility, it functions seamlessly as a high-yield rental, Airbnb suite, or private in-law residence. The main floor estate residence offers three generous bedrooms, a large drawing-cum-dining room, a European-style kitchen, and a full 4-piece washroom. Its signature feature is the breathtaking huge three-sided glass solarium - a year-round destination room with 8-foot double-glass windows framing exceptional sunset views, an insulated European-style ceiling, and space for a kitchen garden, lounge, studio, or dining pavilion. The backyard is thoughtfully divided into two distinct outdoor environments: one for entertaining, the other for quiet retreat. For the lifestyle-driven buyer seeking rarity, flexibility, and architectural character, this is your new home. This is Number 1 Dundee Drive - Opportunities like this do not return.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $1136/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Downsview market conditions. The pricing suggests the seller has done their homework. We may have modest room for negotiation, typically 2-4% in today's market.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Downsview's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Downsview are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Downsview.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Downsview properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $5,208 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
