19 Kayak Crescent, Scarborough

Some homes make you choose between space, location, and smart financials. 19 Kayak Crescent doesn't. Set on a quiet crescent in North Scarborough's sought-after Morningside Heights community, this 3,063 sq ft home backs onto a park for green views and peace out back, and the school is within walking distance, so mornings are as easy as a stroll down the street. Commuters will appreciate quick access to Highway 401, and restaurants, grocery stores, and everyday shopping are all just minutes away. For weekends, the trails of Rouge National Urban Park and the Toronto Zoo are right in your backyard, with the University of Toronto Scarborough, Centennial College, and the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre a short drive away. Inside, warm hardwood carries you through a main floor designed for real life. At its heart is a sleek kitchen with quartz counters and stainless steel appliances, flanked by a formal dining room for occasions that call for it and a relaxed eat-in space for everything else. Separate living areas let the kids spread out with a movie while the adults enjoy some quiet, and a private main-floor office can switch to a guest bedroom the moment family comes to stay. Upstairs, every bedroom is generously proportioned, so there's no debate over who gets the small one. The primary retreat is the true showpiece, with a dressing-room-sized walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite where a deep soaking tub and a separate glass shower let you choose between unwinding and getting out the door. Two more full bathrooms keep the morning rush calm. Below, a legal two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment is leased at $2,542 per month plus 50% of utilities beginning February 1, steady income to put toward your mortgage from day one. With room to live and a home that helps pay for itself, 19 Kayak Crescent is a rare find.
