Welcome to 48 Brookfield Street in Beaconsfield Village!
Located north of Queen Street West just west of Ossington Avenue, this 12 year new semi-detached house is stellar for its proximity to Trinity-Bellwoods park with its dog-friendly walk and community centre pool, hip College Street with its cafe culture and 24 hour Metro grocer, and trendy Queen West West with its art smart set and urbane Drake vibe. Plus it’s just a hop, skip and a jump to Ossington Avenue where a burgeoning art gallery mise-en-scene and grooving social stops have popped up amidst the traditional Portuguese bakers and butchers still serving their long-established clientele. Gentrifying left, right and centre, this sure-fire location has a 24 hour streetcar down the street that leads to all points of the city, whether for work or play, day or night.
This area is dotted with character shops, bars and restaurants, donning clever names and hip patrons. On Ossington, there is Philip Sparks Tailored Goods, Inc. offering both men and women beautifully crafted quality clothing and accessories, many of which derive inspiration from found photographs Canada’s great outdoors, fabrics from yester-year and period tailor’s notions. Some of our favourite hands are on Ossington with local hot spots like Sweaty Betty’s, Pizzeria Libretto or the Crooked Star. We especailly love Union and The Ossington, and the 24 hour Lakeview Diner.
West Queen West is the epicentre of creativity, collaboration and community; it is where ideas and voices meet, reflect and produce- which is evident in the numerous galleries that dot the streets. The galleries are mixed in with unique boutiques, purveying decor, modern and antique furniture, vintage clothing, textiles, gifts, and food, each with character worthy of their creative surroundings. There are sublime eateries that represent a wide cross-section of global fare. Bars and cafes round out the streetscapes, and serve as meeting spots for rumination and conversation. And of course there’s The Drake and Gladstone Hotels steps away which are hotbeds of social and musical mingling.
How amazing is that?
Nestled amidst Victorian merchant class housing, Edwardian working class row houses, and the vintage factory conversions of Queen West that give this neighbourhood its charming patina, this gorgeous modern residence has a classic facade that takes its architectural cues from the traditional housing in the immediate neighbourhood. Under the canopy of mature trees, the beautifully scaled proportions, quality brickwork, fenestration and wrought iron detail provide an enchanting first impression.
The first level unfolds with an open concept living/dining area with wood floors, crown moldings, gas fireplace and french doors to a Juliet balcony. A smart powder room, and elegant stair with classic-detailed balustrade separates two zones for living, with the over-sized cook’s kitchen featuring a gorgeous centre-island and breakfast bar taking centre stage. With its sun-drenched west-facing French doors walking out to a deck, patio and mature landscaped garden, this dreamy contemporary kitchen is perfect for those who love to gather friends round.
The second level has two generous bedrooms that share a well-proportioned washroom. One bedroom is currently set up as an office / media room, demonstrating this space can do double-duty for whatever your needs.
The third floor is the Master suite. Having terrific proportions, a three-piece washroom, walk-in closet and a glorious sun-drenched private deck with charming neighbourhood vista, this special airy oasis is the ultimate respite and sanctuary.
On the lower level, a fourth bedroom, 3-piece washroom and a fully-equipped quality kitchen with separate walk-out lends itself to the potential of an income supplement. How brilliant is that?
Featuring mature plantings both front and back, laneway access to a secure garage, and plenty of panache, this fantastic freehold residence is the ideal opportunity for those seeking a property in move-in condition.
