197 Margueretta Street

A fully detached family home on a 25 x 127 lot with over 3,300 SF of living space over four levels? This is downtown's equivalent of scoring front-row Taylor Swift tickets. That width means enough space for everyone, a floor plan that breathes, and a walkout to a backyard roomy enough for kids, cocktails, and a BBQ that doesn't double as a tanning bed. Anchoring it all is a 2.5-car garage big enough to swallow cars, bikes, skis, patio furniture, Costco hauls, and those boxes of miscellaneous you'll never open. The main floor actually feels like a main floor, with 9-foot ceilings and plenty of living space to gather, cook, sprawl, and host without everyone tripping over each other. And yes, theres a powder room, laundry and storage, right where you need it. Upstairs, five bedrooms and two washrooms. Downstairs? A very large, self-contained apartment with 7 ceilings and its own laundry (will be vacant upon possession.) Margueretta is a quiet, friendly pocket where neighbours wave, yet a short walk puts you on the subway, Bloor's cafés and shops, Dufferin Mall, Dufferin Grove Park for skating, markets, and summer picnics, and brand-new Bloor Collegiate with its enviable TOPS program. Close to streetcar, bus, subway, UP Express and the future Bloor-Lansdowne GO Station. Detached, wide, deep, bedrooms galore, a basement apartment and massive garage, all in a community that's friendly, walkable and minutes from everything. It's the kind of home people wait years to find in a community like this.
