84 Walmsley Boulevard, Yonge-St. Clair M4V 1X6

Description

In midtown Toronto, true houses have become scarce. Too many offerings ask the buyer to surrender scale, light, or the simple dignity of distinct rooms.84 Walmsley asks for none of that. Set in Deer Park, between Yonge Street and Avenue Road, this all-brick residence offers 2,448square feet of living space on a 25-by-120-foot lot. Built in 1987 and held by the same owner for nearly thirty years, it has the composure of a home that has been carefully kept rather than hastily remade. Blond hardwood continues throughout. The kitchen is oriented south, with abundant cabinetry, a generous island, and a round table set within bright windows. A two-piece powder room is discreetly placed in the hallway. Beyond, a formal dining room overlooks the sunken living room, so gatherings remain connected to the centre of the house. That family room is exceptional: ceilings of 10 1/2 feet and a gas fireplace, and a garden outlook that may be opened to sliding doors and a substantial deck. Itis the room on which the house turns. Above, four skylights lend the second floor an uncommon softness. Two well-proportioned front bedrooms share a five-piece bath. The principal suite is notably large, with extensive closet space, ample windows, and a private ensuite illuminated by its own skylight. The lower level is fully finished family room =, with a walkout, a second gas fireplace, a four-piece bath, a sauna, laundry, and direct access to the built-in garage. Two-car parking completes a residence that is as practical as it is considered. Deer Park supplies the rest: Yonge-St. Clair, the subway, shops, and parks close enough to make convenience feel effortless. A rare midtown house, quietly distinguished, and ready for its next steward.
