Homes on Holmcrest Trail rarely come up for sale. The current owners have loved and meticulously maintained this home for over 40 years, and it's easy to see why. Set on a prestigious, tree-lined street known for its exceptionally friendly and helpful neighbours, 40 Holmcrest Trail offers a peaceful, tranquil ravine setting with nature right at your doorstep. This deceptively spacious 5-level backsplit is built for real life and multi-generational living. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms and 3 upgraded bathrooms, including a primary bedroom complete with its own private ensuite. The main floor features a flexible 4th bedroom right next to one of the updated baths and a cozy family room-perfect for in-laws, long-term guests, or a quiet home office. Further down, the lower level offers a direct walk-up to the backyard, bright above-grade windows, a massive cold cellar, and endless storage options. The basement even includes a dedicated workshop area with three large windows-ideal for a handyman or hobbyist, or ready to convert into an extra bedroom or media space. Step outside into your private pie-shaped backyard oasis backing directly onto the ravine. Enjoy summer afternoons around the in-ground pool, surrounded by lush perennial gardens, a patio, and a grassy lawn. Plus, there's a fully fenced side yard for kids and pets, as well as dedicated side-yard parking with plenty of space for your boat, trailer, or camper! Located in the desirable Centennial/West Rouge neighbourhood, you're steps from Lake Ontario, top-rated schools, and scenic nature trails, including the Waterfront Trail. Enjoy easy access to local amenities like U of T Scarborough, the Pan-Am Centre, Toronto Zoo, shopping, and dining. Commuters will love the quick access to the GO Train, Highway 401, and Kingston Road.
