Welcome to your own private oasis in the Bluffs. This truly one-of-a-kind architect-designed ravine property sits on a full half-acre and offers a rare combination of privacy, nature, amazing wildlife, and stunning southeast-facing unobstructed views of the water. Surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty, this home feels peaceful and secluded while still being in the city. This mid-century modern style home was designed by an architect who studied under Frank Lloyd Wright, showcasing character, warmth, and a thoughtful connection to its natural surroundings. Built for entertaining, from intimate dinners to large gatherings, it features approximately 1,480 sq. ft. of decks and balconies, including a 550+ sq. ft. party deck, a 750+ sq. ft. wraparound deck, and two second-storey balconies. The great room is crowned by a soaring two-storey beamed ceiling and a massive Douglas Fir beam, creating a dramatic and memorable living space. The primary suite offers vaulted beam ceilings, a wall of windows facing the morning sunrise, and a private balcony tucked beneath the forest canopy. A separate two-room guest suite with bathroom features vaulted wood beam ceilings and a balcony overlooking the lake. An additional detached 360 sq. ft. studio/home office with 10-foot ceilings adds incredible flexibility. With hardwood flooring through the majority of the living space and the potential to reconfigure up to seven bedrooms, this home is as functional as it is unique. Minutes to Cudia Park, Sylvan Park, the Doris McCarthy Trail, and a 5 km waterfront trail. Near RH King, Cardinal Newman, and the new French Catholic Lamarche high school. A rare opportunity in one of Toronto's most scenic communities.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $667/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Market Position
At 36 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Scarborough 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.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to Scarborough. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 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.
