667 Oxford Street, Toronto

The Oxford Dictionary defines "breakthrough" as "an important development that may lead to an agreement or achievement." And 667 Oxford defines itself the same way. BREAKTHROUGH. Start with the 50 x 125 ft lot, ideal for families who want space for pools, playgrounds and putting greens, but also for builders and developer types. Let's get into the home, but only after you look at this curb appeal. Nice mug on this one, eh? A modernized classic that gets the imagination going: new black 3-pane windows, a beautiful facade, and what's in that huge garage... wait, what's over top of that garage?! Step into the updated reality and get that dictionary back out to find the words for how excited you are. From the modern 2-tone kitchen that walks out to the backyard and hot tub deck, to the living/dining combo (with gas fire/pl & coffee bar ), you've got that special updated touch. Not to mention T.W.O. MUDROOMS, a main floor powder room and a separate main-level bed, office or playroom you didn't know existed. Upstairs gets very, and I do mean VERY, interesting. Three large redone bedrooms, two fully renovated baths, and a next-level loft above the garage (now a games room) that connects to a separate entrance and principal bath, to be used as a... drumroll... secondary suite. It's got a rough-in for a kitchen, a Murphy bed and enough room for your Dolphins-loving brother-in-law to be close enough to help pay the mortgage, but far enough away to let you enjoy the Bills trampling the Dolphins. Gotta love it. Out back? Family mecca. What do you want in a backyard? You can have it here, because this one is so freaking big and wide open. Speaking of big and wide open: CONTRACTORS, CROSSFITTERS ARTISTS AND CAR FOLK! This is the garage (with wood stove) you thought you had to move to the country for. Massive, open and accessible for any growing family, with a massive driveway. I could spend all day in the dictionary, but the best words I can find are: YOU GOTTA SEE THIS PLACE!
