Welcome to 279 Garden Ave, a well-maintained family home proudly owned by the same family for over 60 years. This charming 2-storey, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers a functional layout with plenty of opportunity to make it your own. The main floor is filled with character, featuring stained glass windows in the living room and coffered ceilings in the dining room, along with a large kitchen off the back, with room for an eat-in area. Three well sized bedrooms, each with its own closet, complete the second level, while the partially finished basement provides additional living space. The lower level was formerly configured with a built-in garage, offering potential for future conversion back to garage use, subject to City approvals and applicable requirements. A private drive provides parking for one car. Out back, enjoy a private south-facing yard with plenty of sunshine and space to relax, garden or entertain. Ideally located close to excellent schools, High Park, Lake Ontario and the shops, restaurants and cafés of Roncesvalles Village, with convenient access to TTC, UP Express and GO Transit. A wonderful opportunity to put down roots in one of Toronto's most sought-after west-end neighbourhoods.
