Whether envisioned as the site of a masterfully designed bespoke residence or a lovingly restored character home, the potential here is unparalleled.The existing home unfolds across three levels totalling 4,215 square feet, offering four generously proportioned bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms. A two-car garage with attached workshop adds exceptional utility, complemented by two additional driveway spaces. The ravine setting ensures a degree of seclusion rarely achieved on a Toronto residential lot, with mature trees providing a natural privacy screen.Situated in the prestigious Swansea neighbourhood, this address places residents within walking distance of the Bloor West Village's celebrated shops and restaurants and top-rated schools including Swansea PS and Humberside Collegiate. Convenient access to the Gardiner and Bloor subway line ensures effortless connectivity to downtown, the airport and beyond.
