Tucked quietly along one of Birch Cliff's gentler streets, this fully renovated bungalow feels like a small exhale from the city. Thoughtfully reimagined with warmth and ease in mind, the main floor offers two serene bedrooms and a beautifully modern kitchen dressed in quartz counters, where afternoon light spills in before leading you out to an expansive west-facing deck - made for long summer dinners, slow mornings, and sunsets that linger a little longer. Beyond, a private backyard unfolds like a small sanctuary, framed by mature trees and anchored by a charming garden shed, creating a space that feels peaceful, hidden, and wonderfully removed from the pace of the city. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers remarkable functionality with generous ceiling height, creating a space that feels open, inviting, and endlessly adaptable - whether for cozy movie nights, a creative retreat, or room to grow. It offers a third bedroom and a spacious great room, both thoughtfully finished to feel comfortable and connected to the warmth of the home above.Just moments from Crescentwood Park, the Toronto Hunt Club, and the lake, this home is perfectly placed for those who value both quiet neighbourhood charm and time spent outdoors. A place where evening walks become ritual, where the breeze off the water finds you, and where home feels beautifully lived-in from the very beginning.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Rent
At $2,990/mo, this is priced below the typical 3-bedroom rent of ~$3,500/mo in Birch Cliff. Well-priced rentals move fast — worth acting on. That said, let's check what's driving the lower ask: landlord flexibility, lease term restrictions, or simply a motivated landlord.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Birch Cliff 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.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Lease Terms to Negotiate
Don't just focus on the monthly rent — the lease terms matter just as much. I always advise my rental clients to clarify: what's included (parking, storage, utilities), the lease length options, the landlord's policy on renewals, and whether small personalizations like painting are permitted. These details can make or break your experience over 12–24 months.
Let's Walk Through It Together
Photos can't tell you about traffic noise, natural light at different times of day, or how well the landlord maintains the property. When we view it together, I'll assess the condition of appliances, HVAC, and finishes — and flag anything that might become a headache. I'll also help you understand the lease terms before you sign anything.
