134 Holland Park Avenue, Toronto

For those who want a HOUSE-but don't want to leave the city. Welcome to 134 Holland Park Avenue, where "backyard and bedrooms" isn't a dream of suburban life-it's right here in Toronto. Set on a mature, tree-lined street in Oakwood Village and just minutes from the energy and amenities of St. Clair West, this character-filled home offers the space and flexibility that can be hard to find in the city. The main floor features a renovated kitchen with quartz counters and stainless steel appliances, an open-concept dining area and a wood-burning fireplace. Just off the kitchen, a coffee station and pantry area adds useful storage and opens directly to the two-level rear deck with pergola-an inviting space for morning coffee, outdoor dining and entertaining. Upstairs, find 3 bedrooms and a full 3 piece bath. Downstairs, the finished basement adds a whole other layer of flexibility, with a recreation room, office or gym area, laundry, generous storage, a cold cellar and a beautifully renovated 4 pc bathroom. A separate side entrance adds convenience and flexibility. Outside, the well-kept front garden complements the established streetscape, while a permitted parking pad provides parking. The driveway continues to the rear garage, offering additional storage. Beyond the deck is a backyard with potential worth exploring, including the possibility of a future garden suite. There are also plenty of practical updates behind the home's character: metal roofing, upgraded electrical service, a waterproofed basement and a tankless hot-water system that supplies both domestic hot water and the home's character-filled radiators. Cooling is provided by a ductless mini-split system and ceiling fans. Convenient access to public transit, neighbourhood shops and amenities, Oakwood Village Library & Arts Centre and Cedarvale Park, with St. Clair West close by.
