Original mid-century character meets an extraordinary 174-foot-deep lot in this three-bedroom backsplit tucked into a mature, quiet neighbourhood. The architecture immediately sets it apart, from the unique volcanic lava stone facing on the front of the home to the dramatic cathedral ceiling and peaked windows overlooking the tree-lined street. Inside, exposed brick and granite stone feature walls bring warmth and texture, while hardwood floors and exceptionally large windows add to the home's bright, inviting feel. The eat-in kitchen features built-in banquette seating and a walkout to the fully fenced backyard, a remarkably private setting surrounded by mature trees, established perennial gardens and a producing apple tree, with plenty of room to garden, entertain or play. A garden home consultation has also been completed, offering buyers additional insight into the property's potential for future use. The lower level adds valuable living space, including a recreation room with large above-grade windows on two exposures that make it feel exceptionally bright and airy. Three-car parking takes care of the practical side, while Hunters Glen Park is just steps away, with Thompson Memorial Park, Birkdale Ravine Park, Knob Hill Park, and walking and cycling trails all nearby. Bluffer's Park and the Lake Ontario waterfront are approximately a 10-minute drive away, while Scarborough Town Centre, TTC, Highway 401, schools, shopping and everyday amenities are also close at hand. A backflow prevention valve adds further peace of mind. For buyers with an appreciation for authentic design, this is a home with great bones, memorable architectural details, an incredible property, and exciting possibilities for the years ahead.
