A century-old three-storey designer home located on leafy Dixon Avenue, a short walk from Woodbine Beach Park and several TTC lines.The current owner, an interior designer, bought this house in 1992 for $280,000. She renovated intermittently over the next 30 years, replacing the kitchen appliances as well as the plumbing and electrical, installing hardwood baseboards, and laying down new marble flooring—all while maintaining the home’s curved ceilings and old-world accessories.
She’s now looking to sell and downsize. Realtor Brennan Aguanno says potential buyers have included large families and couples who want to rent out the basement.A bay window and portico add some flair to the classic red-brick façade. The wide brick parking pad can fit three cars.The owner accented the home with antique pieces like this pendulum clock.The kitchen comes with a cedar island, quartz countertops, a gas stove and Blanco faucets installed just last year.
There’s also another sprawling living area on the second floor, which the current owner used as a TV room and home office.Here’s the nanny-suite kitchen, which makes great use of the limited space.In the basement is a third kitchen. This level has polished concrete floors throughout and a private entrance, so it’s ideal for renting out.
The place also comes with a two-storey deck out back. The bottom level attaches to the kitchen and has newly built garden beds and a shed tucked under the stairs.Have a home that’s about to hit the market? Send your listing to
