Situated on an exceptionally rare 54-foot wide corner lot in the centre of one of Toronto's most beloved neighbourhoods, this home blends timeless character with thoughtful upgrades and parking for two cars, only steps from Queen St in the Beach. Sun-filled rooms feature bay windows, new hardwood floors and a cozy wood-burning fireplace, creating warm and inviting living spaces across all seasons. A welcoming front porch and classic centre hall plan set the tone for this beautifully restored residence, lovingly updated while preserving its incredible original detail. Offering 2,300 sqft of above-grade living space, the home's generous proportions and large windows are enhanced by high ceilings, creating an airy, expansive feel throughout. The eat-in kitchen and large dining room are designed for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs are 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a 4-piece ensuite, plus a 2nd-floor laundry room. A versatile 4th bedroom on the main floor with an adjacent full bathroom is ideal for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. The finished lower level adds 1,150 sqft with 7' ceilings - a comfortable, open feel rarely found in a Beach basement. A large rec room, 2 additional bedrooms and a 4th full bathroom round out this exceptional level. The current owners have invested thoughtfully in the home's future: new roof (2025), heat pump (2022), high-efficiency combi-boiler (2021), window wells / full basement waterproofing with sump pump (2022), and lawn irrigation. Nothing left to do but move in and enjoy. Featuring a fully fenced backyard and backing onto a quiet dead-end lane where neighbours gather and children play. This home is just steps from Queen St's vibrant shops, restaurants, cafés, grocers, and amenities - including a brand new golf simulator around the corner. A short walk to the beach boardwalk and the scenic trails and gardens of Glen Stewart Ravine. A rare opportunity to own an extraordinary Beach home!

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1200/sqft, this property is priced above the The Beaches average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In The Beaches'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 The Beaches 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 6 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 The Beaches.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: The Beaches properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $10,000 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
