Set on an extraordinary 60' x 182' property in the heart of Islington Village, this storybook English cottage captures the timeless charm and beauty that make this little enclave so desirable. There is a genuine sense of community here that is hard to find. Neighbours become friends, conversations happen at the end of driveways, children play in front yards and dog owners know each other by name. It's a special place. Bordered to the north by the prestigious Islington Golf Club, the neighbourhood feels like a peaceful village with winding tree-lined streets, charming homes and walking distance to a variety of parks and green space including Echo Valley Park and its scenic trail system. Tucked far back from the street beneath a copy of mature trees this property offers exceptional privacy and future potential, whether building a luxury home or enjoying the character of the existing one while renovating over time. This 1.5 story home features 3 beds, 3 baths, an updated kitchen with island, two wood-burning fireplaces, a dreamy primary retreat with built-ins, a sunken walk-in closet and ensuite, plus a finished lower level. Just moments to transit, highways, downtown and the airport. A truly rare offering in one of Etobicoke's most beloved neighbourhoods.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1265/sqft, this property is priced above the Etobicoke 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 Etobicoke'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 Etobicoke 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.
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.
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.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Etobicoke properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $7,908 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
