Beautifully Renovated Detached Bungalow That Is Set To Impress

Property Description

Nestled within the sought-after Burnhamthorpe Gardens neighborhood and wrapped in mature trees and gardens, lies this beautifully renovated detached bungalow that is set to impress. Situated on an impressive 52 x 120-foot south corner lot, this home has been extensively renovated inside and the newly painted crisp white exteriors capture passers-by with its charming traditional wooden siding and white picket fence. 

A new custom solid-wood front door opens to a generous foyer entryway with white oak flooring and a double coat closet for storage  The floor plan then opens to a surprising and expansive open-concept great room with fully renovated surfaces and exciting offerings in every direction. Ceilings have been enlarged, white oak flooring runs throughout, and the open-concept spaces interact beautifully together and are enjoyed both for entertaining as well as comfortable day to day living. 

At the centre of the home, the gorgeous custom kitchen is a chef’s delight. It features solid custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and beautiful stone countertops and a slab backsplash. Adjacent to the kitchen, a sunny dining room is wrapped in a corner of windows and as well has two skylights, filling this room with light.  It has a walk-out to the deck, garden and the garage, as well as extra coat closet storage for those that wish to use this as their main entrance coming in from the parking. 

For the casual moments, two opportunities are available within this great room, one in the living room with a blue feature wall, and the other in the adjacent family room with more space to expand into and enjoy.  Use separately or combine together as you see fit!

For those who work from home, the separate home office with a skylight and pretty French doors provides a quiet and private space to focus and be productive.

Separated from the great room by a quiet hallway, the two bedrooms lie conveniently away from the noise and activity of the principal spaces.  The primary bedroom is generously sized and offers a wall of built-in closets. Originally two bedrooms converted into one, this room can easily be reverted to its original layout if desired. The second bedroom boasts stunning south and east views over the charming garden setting outside.

Outside, the meticulously landscaped gardens include a cozy sitting area enveloped by mature trees at the front, and a delightful dining area at the back, enclosed by a white picket fence.

Parking is abundant on this property with space for two cars on the private driveway, in addition to one more within the garage itself. The second garage bay has been cleverly converted into a home office or gym space, complete with a three-piece bathroom and its own ductless AC unit. The seller nor the listing agents warrant the retrofit status of this garden suite. 

Conveniently located near Kipling station for GO and TTC transit, as well as the 427 highway, this home offers swift access to the downtown core, Pearson Airport, and all major routes in and out of Toronto. It is the perfect “downsize” for local residents to enjoy this condo alternative, or for those wishing to secure an entry point into this incredible community.
