214 Briar Hill Ave, Toronto, ON

Timeless North Toronto character meets thoughtful modern updates in this four-bedroom, four-bathroom detached three-storey home, set in the heart of Lawrence Park South on a 132ft deep lot. It's in the sought-after TDSB catchment for Allenby, Glenview, Lawrence Park and North Toronto, and close to private options like Havergal and St. Clement's. The main floor keeps the elegance of an original Lawrence Park home, with hardwood floors, crown moulding and original French doors between the formal living and dining rooms. At the back, a bright family room addition opens onto the yard, with a handy powder room and views of the pool. Upstairs, the second floor has three bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The entire third level is the primary retreat, with room for a king bed, a huge walk-in closet, a spa-like five-piece ensuite and a generous flex space for a home gym, family room, nursery or private office. The professionally underpinned, full-height basement adds even more living space. It has radiant heated floors, a flexible recreation area and a full fourth bathroom. Outside, landscaped grounds surround an in-ground pool with an integrated hot tub, so you can have your own cottage escape without leaving the city. There's also a legal front parking pad for one car, plus street parking permits available. Well maintained and move-in ready, this is a rare chance to own a classic home in one of Toronto's top neighbourhoods and school districts.
