Come enjoy the best of Beach Living in a gorgeously renovated home with Starbucks at the corner and the beach/boardwalk at the foot of your street! From the moment you set eyes on 272, the extent & quality of improvements is immediately evident. A professionally landscaped front walk with solid stone stairs, a cozy porch with tongue & groove cedar ceiling featuring pots & a barn light, board & batten privacy wall, high quality wood windows and just feel the quality of that front door as you swing it open! Inside, a dedicated front foyer provides the space to leave boots, gloves & more neatly tucked away from your living space - a theme that continues with the custom built-ins under the front window. Tall ceilings accent the space in the open concept living/dining rooms while a full width kitchen provides the space for a kitchen of your dreams! The centre island easily seats 3, there is more storage space than you'll know what to do with, the countertops are plenty, the induction cooktop features double ovens and the fridge provides filtered water on demand. Two large windows and a glass door to the back deck (more about that later) flood the the space with light. As you head upstairs, two things become evident - the stairs have been widened (a sign of the extent of the renovation) and the skylight on the second floor allows light to pour downstairs. The primary bedroom features high quality wood bay windows, wall-to-wall closets and lots of space. The two kids rooms are large enough for study areas and have room for built-in PAX wardrobes and the bathroom features a heated floor! Downstairs, you'll be blown away by the ceiling height and there is room for a 4th bedroom & rec room/gym or remove the wall for a large rec room. A gorgeous 2nd bathroom, laundry room and separate entrance finish it off. Don't forget the yard - turf for low maintenance, a huge shed and spacious deck are the icing on the cake! Open Houses: Sat/Sun, 2-4pm.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $999/sqft, this property is priced in line with current The Beaches 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.
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 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.
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 The Beaches. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
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 $4,579 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
