126 Oakcrest Ave is a detached three-bedroom home with real personality and a long list of completed major renovations. A working wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, while exposed brick, beautifully curated lighting and sun-filled rooms give the house warmth without feeling overly designed. The kitchen (2018) and both bathrooms (2018 & 2025) were gutted to the studs and completely rebuilt, featuring an aesthetic that blends seamlessly with the original character. The primary bathroom is a standout: gorgeous tile and exposed brick surround a large soaker tub and huge shower, with heated floors underfoot. And the work goes well beyond what you can see. The roof was completely rebuilt (2022), not simply reshingled. Most windows were replaced (2018), the electrical system is up to date, and the HVAC system dates to 2019. The layout includes mudrooms at both the front and back, two practical landing zones for coats, backpacks, wet shoes and muddy paws. Downstairs, the finished basement (2019) with its striking polished concrete floors and spray foam insulation behind the walls. It is divided into distinct areas for workouts, movie nights, and storage, while the cantina has been lined for wine-bottle storage. Outside, a right-of-way drive provides parking for one car. The backyard has sod, room to garden, a newer deck and a hot tub, with greenery creating a mix of sun and shade. Woodbine subway station, Danforth GO, Bike Share and cycling connections are close by, along with East Lynn Park, the Oakcrest Orchard and the independent businesses of the East Danforth.
