About this property

Toronto Beaches Spacious Charming Century Home Close to Downtown and Beaches

Located on a family-friendly, safe, quiet, leafy street, seconds to Queen Street and Lake Ontario. Close to the boardwalk, cafes & fabulous restaurants. Enjoy the amazing deck, comfy beds and charm of this beautifully maintained detached Century home located 20 minutes from downtown Toronto.

Our house has been completely renovated and is very bright and clean. The first floor has an oak-panelled entrance which leads to a gourmet eat-in kitchen with a breakfast nook. The kitchen appliances are all top of the line. Adjacent to the kitchen is a laundry area and a powder room. There are separate living and dining rooms. We have a dining table that sits 10. On the second floor, there are 2 bedrooms and 3 beds, plus a sunroom. There is a full washroom on the second floor. The third floor is the master suite featuring an en suite bathroom, sitting area and walk-out to a large balcony. We have radiant heating and modern air-conditioning.

I wanted to let you know that we have made room in our closets and dressers for your clothing (if you choose), however, because it is the house that we live in, you will find that some of our personal belongings may be in the closets and dressers.

Summer on the city

We stayed at Clive’s house for 6 weeks. He was very flexible with our dates since we were caught in Covid restrictions. The house was very spacious and equipped with everything a person could need. Loved the back deck and garden. We had family and friends over many times for dinner and everyone remarked on how lovely the house was. I was able to walk to Queen St for shopping snd lunches and also to the Beach for birding. Great location. We were a 5-min drive from our daughter and they walked over many times. The only recommendation I would make is to put a queen bed on the 2nd floor. The 3rd floor does have a queen but it is under the Eve and we are both tall and could not sleep there. The 3rd floor bathroom is fantastic.

About the host

Hosted by Clive Kessel

Host profile image
I am an urban planner by training and worked in project management and facility and property management in Toronto, Canada. I am married and have four adult children. My passions include skiing, bicycling, my Vespas and Volvos. I love to cook, eat and drink. My favourite foods include oysters, anything with avocado, sushi, schnitzel, steak frites, Caprese salad and Niçoise. My favourite wine is Chardonnay, Prosecco and Pinot Noir. I love to travel and discover new places.

Why they chose this property

We have lovingly restored this property to its former glory (It was built just after the First World War). This is a solid brick house with hardwood flooring and oak trim throughout. We have kept the charm of the era that it was designed and built for while providing all the modern conveniences we have come to expect. The house is situated in a safe, tree lined neighbourhood which has great shopping, parks and neighbours.

What makes this property unique

This house is spacious, warm and clean. The furniture is comfortable and practical. The kitchen is very well appointed with all tools required to cook amazing gourmet meals. We have beautiful outdoor spaces include a front porch, a ground floor deck with outdoor furniture and a gas BBQ and a third floor deck off the master bedroom.
