The best homes don't ask for compromise. Thoughtfully updated, 472 Balliol Street offers move in-ready living with space, exceptional parking, and the kind of peace of mind that's increasingly hard to find - in the heart of Davisville Village and within the coveted Maurice Cody Public School district. The lowered, fully waterproofed lower level is a standout - professionally underpinned for exceptional ceiling height and waterproofed for lasting confidence. It includes a fourth bedroom with closet, a three-piece ensuite, and a spacious recreation room, adding meaningful living space below grade. The main floor balances openness and warmth: hardwood floors, custom built-ins, a gas fireplace, and bright living and dining areas. The renovated kitchen offers granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a walkout to the large rear deck. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a primary with custom built-in closets, plus a renovated four-piece bath. Behind the scenes, an updated electrical panel, newer mechanical systems, replaced siding, and updated appliances mean the major work is already done. Outside, artificial turf and generous outdoor living lead to a detached drywalled, high-ceilinged, with abundant storage and an electric opener. The laneway setting 1.5-car garage - is a hidden bonus: minimal traffic and a safe space for kids to play close to home. Davisville Village is one of Midtown's most sought-after family neighbourhoods - tree-lined streets, the shops and cafés of Bayview and Mount Pleasant minutes away, parks and the Beltline Trail at your doorstep, and quick TTC access downtown. Families are the top-rated schools, including Maurice Cody Public School and Northern Secondary, along with drawn here for a genuine sense of community. Combining thoughtful updates, flexible living space, and exceptional convenience, this is a rare move-in-ready opportunity in the heart of Midtown Toronto.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1181/sqft, this property is priced above the Leaside 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 Leaside'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 Leaside 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 Leaside. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Leaside properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $5,413 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
Let's See It Together
Photos only tell part of the story. During our showing, I'll point out things the camera doesn't capture: neighbourhood feel, natural light quality, traffic noise, and overall condition. I'll also share what comparable homes have sold for and help you craft a winning strategy if you decide to move forward.
