For over 40 years, the same owner has loved living here in one of the few bungalows remaining in this warm, friendly, and leafy neighbourhood. Originally built in 1943, the home sits on a spacious 30’ x 135’ lot with separate entrance. Endless possibilities include updating to suit, adding on, or creating your own dream home. A charming backyard oasis with mature crape-myrtle flower bushes adorning the beautiful garden, ideal for children to play hide and seek and for others to relax. A private drive with parking for two cars and a large, detached garage for additional parking or storage is a huge plus for a home in the city.    The new Eglinton Crosstown will be only a couple minutes away making a commute to work by public transit exceptionally easy. By car, the commute to downtown is only 15 minutes away with access to Bayview Ave or the DVP.  A popular skate park and famed Charmaine Sweets bakery are just two blocks away. This incredibly family-friendly locale has some of the top public and private schools in the immediate vicinity along with a beautiful library. Lovely, friendly neighbours add to the desirability of this pocket. 

About the Neighbourhood

One of Toronto’s most desirable and family-friendly neighbourhoods, Leaside is bounded on the west by Bayview Avenue, one of the city’s most popular shopping districts, and extends north to the parkland beyond Eglinton Avenue East. Leaside’s eastern border ends just before Leslie Street, along more green space. Close to its southern border, south of Moore Street, a commercial area includes a multi-service recreation centre, bordered by a walkable forest and the Don Parklands. Leaside is only a 15-minute drive to the downtown core via the Bayview extension. A shopper’s paradise, Leaside has wonderful little boutiques and restaurants along Bayview plus a large Home Depot and other chain retailers as well as a fabulous Longo’s off Laird. Nearby Sunnybrook Park has walking trails and playing fields. Sunnybrook Hospital and the Granite Club are both just minutes away. This truly is city living at its best.
