Welcome to 102 Eaton Avenue.
Beyond the vibe that connectedness offers, this home is flush with nearby amenities, giving lucky residents options for food, drink and proximity to public transportation with the Pape Subway Station just two blocks away. The area is dotted with numerous family-run businesses, lending a personal appeal to the community commerce. Favourite local eateries of ours just steps away include The Only Café and the Danforth Pizza House, but you only have to stroll a few blocks west to be in the heart of Greektown for some delectable culinary adventures including Lolita’s Lust and 7 Numbers. For those who appreciate a walking life, Danforth at Pape blends unique boutiques and specialty food retailers meshed in with convenience shops like Home Hardware, Shoppers Drug Mart and The Pape Market, meaning that you don’t have to go far to get what you need in a pinch! There’s even several Car2Go rentals just around the corner from this house!
When kids aren’t busy playing road hockey or hopscotch, they’ll take advantage of conveniently close, reputable schools like Wilkinson Jr. PS, Earl Grey Sr. PS, Riverdale CI, Danforth Collegiate and Technical institute and Eastern Commerce Collegiate Institute. Plus green space and leisure opportunities abound, with the property located just east of lush Withrow Park, a 21-acre green space dating from the 1910s. One of Toronto’s larger multi-purpose parks, it boasts an off-leash dog area, a fenced and dog-free children’s playground and summer wading pool, a clubhouse for indoor classes and community group use, a weekly summer farmers’ market, plus plenty of outdoor space for sports and recreation including tennis, hockey, baseball and soccer. And with large pockets of naturalized areas and gardens, there’s plenty of space to find respite from the day-to-day ravages of urban life. It certainly adds to the charm of this dynamic family-friendly area, making it one of the city’ most coveted neighbourhood villages. How amazing is that?
This detached three bedroom, 4 bath home is sun-drenched and stylish – which are excellent qualities to have when beginning home ownership. Substantially renovated with a generous addition, the main level entertainment space boasts a well-proportioned series of articulated plank floored living spaces which flow beautifully together. The chic duo-tone kitchen is gourmet-appointed with some pretty swish appliances – including gas cooking – stone counters and a dreamy island to gather friends round. I covet the sunken family room with gas fireplace and floor-to-ceiling walk-out to the west-facing garden with its recently constructed deck. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a master bedroom with ample closet, sliding barn doors and 5 piece spa bath. Plus, this dwelling has a finished lower level with sizeable media room, an additional 3-piece and laundry room.
The home has been substantially upgraded with new building components including roof, windows, wiring, plumbing and insulation. Without question, this is an ideal opportunity to acquire a clean-lined modern property in a convenient vibrant community!
