Description

Welcome to 507 Beresford Ave, a beautifully updated family home tucked on one of Bloor West's most neighbourly streets. This is a home where thoughtful renovations, warm character, and modern convenience all come together - just a 10-minute walk from both Runnymede and Jane subway stations.The current owners have transformed this home with meaningful, high-quality improvements: A fully renovated main floor (2017) walls removed to create an airy, open-concept plan, a custom chef's kitchen with massive island, super white marble counters, a 6-burner Wolf range, Miele dishwasher, KitchenAid fridge, and wine/beverage centre. Carefully redesigned ductwork to improve comfort on all levels. Custom stained hardwood floorsA sleek, built-in entertainment unit with incredible storage. Gas line for BBQ, New front mudroom (2024) with heated floors and an outdoor trash can enclosure. New fenced backyard (2024) with a smart, WiFi-enabled in-ground sprinkler system and a clean stone walkway to the shed. Upstairs, a major 2011 renovation doubled down on quality: new beams and joists, upgraded insulation, vapour barrier, hardwood flooring, and complete replacement of old steel/lead piping with copper plumbing. The lower level was gutted and rebuilt in 2015 with waterproofing, new drainage and sump pump, insulated exterior walls, and a versatile design. Outside, the newly refreshed backyard is ideal for play, gardening, and relaxation. The street itself is unusually peaceful for the area, with easy on-street parking; most neighbours with lane-way garages prefer the more convenient street parking . A true "walk-everywhere" location: steps to beloved local restaurants (Italian, sushi, Mexican, pizza), independent cafés, fruit and vegetable markets, butcher and fishmonger, parks, top schools, The Junction, and the Annette Farmers' Market (May-October). The block is known for friendly neighbours who organize kid-focused events and occasional street parties.
