11 Ardrossan Place, Toronto, ON

Description

Right out of a storybook with a red brick facade and a endearing arched front doorway, 11 Ardrossan Place is as inviting on the inside as its exterior charm. Mature gardens line the pathway from the curb on this one-block street that is just steps to Yonge and Lawrence. The foyer holds not one but two front hall closets, as well as a concealed two-piece powder room under the staircase. Stepping into the principal rooms, the sight-lines within the house expand from the oversized living room straight through the family room addition. A wood burning fireplace anchors the living room, and a large bay window overlooks the pretty front garden. The dining room is wrapped in original wainscotting, and connects directly to the kitchen which, while older, is fully functional and with full-sized appliances and excellent storage. The family room addition was added in the late-70's by the current owner, nearly doubling the size of the main floor footprint. A wall of glass overlooks the beautifully curated garden and roomy patio area for outdoor dining. The garden expands to full-width behind the garage, and is awarded with full sun and generous set backs from neighbouring properties. The second floor holds three bedrooms, two of which have tandem spaces. The primary bedroom at the front of the house has a tandem dressing room, while the north-east bedroom has a tandem sun room/office that overlooks the garden. All of these bedrooms have closets. A surprising third floor opens to expose a fourth bedroom with a two-piece powder room and additional storage tucked into the knee walls. The basement is completely unfinished, and ready for your future finishings as you see fit. Set within the Bedford Park Public School district, and Lawrence Park CI. Enjoy weekends in Wanless Park playing tennis, watching kids play soccer and baseball, or throwing the ball for your dog. Commute to work via the Yonge subway line, and escape the city with quick access to the 401.
