9 Squires Avenue, Toronto

There's a quiet that settles over this pocket of the city that you don't expect. Just 20 minutes from downtown, yet a world away. Nestled in one of East York's most sought-after pockets known for its generous lots, private driveways, mature trees, and exceptional value. This beautifully updated 1 1/2-storey detached situated on an impressive 55 x 125 lot is anything but ordinary. The heart of the home is the open-concept, living and dining room with a gorgeous centre island grounding the space. Bright, warm and designed for both entertaining and everyday living, it's a space where long golden afternoons pour through the windows. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms offer peaceful treetop views, while the finished lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a generous family room, with office space, additional bedroom, and 3-piece bath. Step outside and the lot surprises you. Expansive and private, with a back deck made for morning coffee and long summer evenings, a large shed and large private drive. Just a short walk to Taylor Creek Park and the ravine trail system, where kilometres of walking and cycling trails wind through some of the city's most beautiful green space and connect all the way to the waterfront beyond. More space, more privacy, and more trees, without ever giving up the convenience of city living.
