Welcome to this exceptional 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom family home on one of the most coveted streets in North Leaside. Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully expanded, this residence combines timeless character with modern functionality, offering the perfect balance of style, space, and location. A substantial addition, completed in 2007, transformed the home to meet the needs of today's family living with fibre optics for phone, TV and internet along with ethernet cable throughout most rooms. The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen and family room, designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. Bathed in natural light, this open-concept space features a chef's kitchen with generous counter space, a large island, and seamless flow into the family room with walk-out to the deck and backyard. Upstairs, the addition also created a spacious and serene primary retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and spa-like ensuite with heated floors, ensuring a private sanctuary at the end of the day. The home's layout is ideal for families, with four additional bedrooms providing plenty of room for children, guests, or a dedicated home office. Four bathrooms (2 upper bathrooms w/heated floors), including a powder room on the main floor, offer both convenience and comfort for busy households. A finished lower level provides additional living space with recreation room and gym. Set on one of North Leaside's most sought-after streets, this home offers a true sense of community in a family-friendly neighbourhood. Highly rated schools are just a short walk away, along with beautiful parks, playgrounds and green spaces. Excellent access to transit and major routes makes commuting downtown or across the city simple, while nearby shopping and dining options add to the convenience of the location. With its thoughtful design, prime location, and blend of traditional charm and modern upgrades, this home is a rare opportunity in one of Toronto's most desirable enclaves.
Leaside is one of Toronto’s most desirable neighbourhoods because it strikes a rare balance between quiet, leafy streets and urban convenience. The area is especially appealing for families: schools like Leaside High School, Northlea Elementary & Middle School, Bessborough Elementary & Middle School, and St. Anselm Catholic School consistently rank highly, offering strong academics and a variety of programs. Leaside is also close to many top rated private schools including Crescent School and Toronto French School.
Parks and green spaces are another huge draw. Serena Gundy Park provides natural trails, picnic spots, and a link into the Don Valley trail system. Trace Manes Park is a multi-use locale with playgrounds, baseball diamonds, tennis courts, even an ice rink in winter. Howard Talbot Park, Sherwood Park, and the Leaside Memorial Community Gardens add even more recreational diversity.
Transport is becoming an even stronger plus, especially with the arrival of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT. The new stations in Leaside – notably Leaside station (Bayview & Eglinton) and Laird station (Laird & Eglinton) – will vastly improve east-west connectivity, cutting down travel times across midtown Toronto. This makes commuting much easier whether you work downtown or elsewhere in the city.
Finally, Leaside offers a rich mix of amenities: vibrant local shopping along Bayview Avenue, restaurants and coffee shops, community and recreation centres, proximity to healthcare such as Sunnybrook Hospital, easy access to major roads, and a strong sense of neighbourhood. These features combine to make Leaside ideal for those who want both peace and convenience in their daily life.
