227 Donlands Ave isn't just renovated - it's a complete transformation. Gutted to the studs and totally reimagined, this detached East York home is a masterclass in smart, future-ready design. Steps from Donlands subway, with quick DVP access and the vibrant Danforth at your doorstep, the location is every bit as strong as the home itself. Major systems have been replaced throughout: upgraded electrical panel with EV charger connection under the deck, a smart heat pump with individual bedroom temperature control via ecobee Wi-Fi thermostats, high-efficiency on-demand hot water radiators, whole-home HRV ventilation, full spray foam insulation, double-pane crank windows, updated PVC plumbing, and new roof shingles (2025-2026). A soaring skylight floods the open main floor with natural light. Wide-plank engineered oak hardwood and recessed dimmable lighting run throughout. The designer kitchen features quartz countertops, custom cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, porcelain tile, an oversized French door fridge, and premium LG appliances. Washrooms offer a spalike experience - micro-cement walls, a custom vanity, matte black fixtures. Upstairs, the four-piece bath is finished to the same elevated standard. Custom built-ins throughout bring calm and function to every room. Outside, a large private backyard and permeable interlocking front pad complete the picture. The finished lower level offers a bright third bedroom with upgraded egress - ideal for guests, a home office, or flex living. As an added BONUS: the seller is offering $3,000 toward the washer and dryer of your choice - your brand, your features, your call.
