161 Pearson Avenue

Roncesvalles Village has a well-deserved reputation as a real Jane Jacobs kind of 'hood, with pretty much everything you could need within walking distance. Great schools, shops, restaurants, coffee shops, churches, glorious High Park and Sorauren Park, with its sports leagues, farmer's market and will soon(?) have a community recreation centre, with 2 pools. Visible at the south end of Roncesvalles are the glittering waters of Lake Ontario, keeping the neighbourhood warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Imagine dining outside, on your large south-facing deck, in a garden that gets sun all day long. When a car trip is called for, it's through the garden to the garage and out through the back lane, where kids play safely and neighbours meet. Inside, the main floor is open and inviting with an exposed brick fireplace, reflected on polished hardwood floors, from front to back. The updated kitchen sparkles with black granite counters and gives out onto a sunny, elevated wooden deck. The basement is well kept and might be retrofitted for use as a nanny or elderly parent suite. The second floor is a skylit retreat, with beautifully updated and sunny bathroom, 2nd and 3rd BR or office. Best of all, the main bedroom has a bay window and a gas fireplace against an exposed brick chimney. The cathedral ceiling is wood-clad, lit with QH light fixtures, and equipped with a ceiling fan - WOW! The home has been meticulously cared for since 1995 and is in move-in condition, yet ready to personalize to suit your family. Welcome!
