Some homes are renovated. Others are reimagined. 979 Broadview Avenue is the latter. Behind the classic Riverdale façade sits nearly 1,900 square feet of thoughtfully redesigned living space transformed through a full renovation and substantial rear addition. Every inch was carefully considered with no expense spared, with more than $1 million invested into the home's redesign, finishes, and functionality. Custom Cameo Kitchens millwork, Taj Mahal and Michelangelo Nuvolato stone, bespoke bathrooms, Porsche Design architectural lighting, integrated smart home technology, engineered hardwood flooring, and professionally designed landscaping all come together to create a home that feels refined and cohesive. Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances anchor the kitchen, while motorized blinds, Sonos integration, custom built-ins, and warm, layered material choices elevate everyday living. Nothing here feels builder-grade. Nothing feels accidental. Light pours through the rear of the home into beautifully connected living, dining, and kitchen spaces designed for both entertaining and quiet daily life. Upstairs, the primary suite is nothing short of breathtaking featuring a full wall of windows overlooking the backyard, an over-sized designer 5pc ensuite with custom stone soaker tub and curbless shower and full wall of custom millwork with integrated lighting. There are 2 other large bedrooms upstairs, one of which was converted into an open-concept media room and office and can easily be converted back to your 3rd bedroom. Outside, the fully landscaped extra deep backyard complete with deck, patio, fencing, and hot tub feels more like a private retreat than a downtown Toronto property. 4-car parking only adds to the rarity. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Riverdale, steps to parks, the Danforth, transit, cafés, and restaurants, this is a home that was built to be felt as much as seen.

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 Danforth 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.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Danforth'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 Danforth 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: Danforth properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $6,246 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
