248 Snowdon Avenue, Toronto (Lawrence Park North), ON M4N 2B3

A Rare Gem: Some homes don't hit the market often, and when they do, they turn heads. Set on a rare 30 x 125-ft lot in the quietest part of Snowdon (between Ronan and Riverview); this classic Lawrence Park North detached home offers space inside and out. A full private driveway for three cars (not front pad - a real driveway) sets it apart from most area homes. Located on the best block of Snowdon, where traffic slows to a near stop, this home offers the quiet of a residential enclave while being just 3.5 blocks from Yonge Street shops and restaurants. The Lawrence subway is a 10-minute walk, and some of Toronto's top schools, including Bedford Park, Blessed Sacrament, Toronto French School, and Lawrence Park Collegiate, are all nearby. The foyer's French doors lead to the living room, where a bay window frames the tree-lined street, and an original fireplace and crown moulding add character. The dining room with French doors, wainscotting, and a moulded ceiling is perfect for family dinners. The 2012-renovated kitchen blends function with timeless style: solid maple cabinets, ceramic floors, and Miele & KitchenAid stainless steel appliances. A bright breakfast nook with a walkout to deck makes casual meals a delight. Upstairs, hardwood floors, a skylight-lit hallway, and spacious bedrooms maintain the home's charm. The main baths double vanity suits a busy family. Backing onto the homes on Golfdale Road, the deep, private yard is a rare find. Mature trees, a wired shed, gazebo, and plenty of space make it an oasis. The property qualifies for a Garden Suite under the City Program - the largest allowed at 1297 square feet. The lower level, with a separate entrance, offers flexibility - playroom, gym, or in-law suite - with a three-piece bath and jetted tub. Homes like this rarely come up in Lawrence Park North, particularly east of Yonge. And when they do, they dont last long. (id:47423)
