241 Erskine Avenue, Toronto, ON

Description

A Sherwood Park surprise! Larger than it appears, this detached three-bedroom home on Erskine Avenue offers its next owner a surprisingly large and interactive floor plan, three huge bedrooms, a deep basement with a separate entrance, and a private driveway for two cars! Located on the dead-end portion of Erskine Avenue and within a lovely and tight-knit enclave of residents, you will be forever grateful that you selected this community for your family. Built in 1924 and owned by the same occupants since 1982, 241 Erskine Avenue has been lovingly enjoyed, improved and cared for with great detail throughout.The main floor is completely filled with light from the front and back floor-to-ceiling windows. The living room is huge, centered upon a large wood burning fireplace, and overlooked by the front foyer and the dining room which lie adjacent to it. The kitchen is lined with a abundance of cabinetry lined with rift-cut oak fronts, and offers three large counter surfaces including a centre island with quartz countertop. A dedicated breakfast area adjacent to the kitchen overlooks the back garden, and a cleverly designed built-in desk nook provides a perfect home office space within easy reach. On the second floor, three large bedrooms all have double closets with built-in inserts, large picture windows, and all share access to the five-piece bathroom that lies at the top of the stairs. An additional skylight on the landing continues the exposure of natural light and while the pots and pendant fixtures have been replaced in the home, they are seldom needed when the sun is up. The lower level's ceilings are consistently 7'2" with above grade windows, a huge rec room, bathroom and four separate storage areas. The gardens front and back have been designed to maximize their function and privacy. There is a large deck at the back for dining and lounging, and sight lines carry through neighbour's gardens vs looking into a neighbour's home.
