WHERE RAVINE TRANQUILITY, QUEEN STREET CONVENIENCE AND LAKEFRONT LIVING COME TOGETHER
This is quintessential beach life!
139 Hammersmith Ave is situated on an exceptionally rare 54ft wide corner lot with a rare two-car private drive, in the centre of one of Toronto's most beloved neighbourhoods. This Beach home blends lovingly restored timeless character with thoughtful renovations. The welcoming front porch and classic centre hall plan set the tone for this beautifully restored residence.
Offering over 2,200 sqft of above-grade living, the home's generous principal room sizes and large windows are enhanced by 9ft ceilings. Feel the airy, expansive, calm feel throughout. Each space, centered around the breathtaking windows, celebrates incredible leafy neighbourhood vistas. The grand living room, spacious dining room and eat-in kitchen are fit for everyday living and entertaining alike. The main floor features a rare main floor 4th bedroom, currently enjoyed as a family room and home office. This versatile space, with an adjacent full bathroom, is also ideal for multigenerational living.
On the second floor, the private, primary suite features its own sitting area, incredible storage and 4 piece ensuite. Two additional spacious bedrooms, another full bathroom and coveted second-floor laundry complete the level.
The finished lower level adds an additional 1,118 sqft of light filled space with tall ceilings. A comfortable, open feel rarely found in a Beach basement. A large recreation room, home office area, 5th bedroom and home gym. A spacious storage / mechanical room and full bathroom round out this exceptional level.
Outdoor living is every bit as special. The fully fenced backyard, complete with a treehouse, backs onto a quiet dead-end lane where neighbours gather and children play. A wonderful extension of the home and a true sense of community.
And then there is the location. Walk to the lakefront boardwalk and parks, wander the scenic trails and gardens of Glen Stewart Ravine, or head just steps away to the independent shops, restaurants, cafés, grocers and amenities of Queen Street. With a Walk Score of 97 and the 501 streetcar only a two-minute walk away, everything you love about Beach living is right outside your door.
Located in the coveted school districts for Williamson Road Junior PS (with French immersion), Glen Ames Senior PS and Malvern Collegiate.
A rare opportunity to own an extraordinary home in the heart of the Beach, offering space, character, community and an unbeatable connection to nature and the neighbourhood.
Nothing left to do but move in and enjoy!
