About this home

This Roncesvalles home offers a rare combination of space, character and a sense of place. Set on a beautiful, tree-lined, one-way street, this semi is exceptional in size, offering over 2,600 sq. ft. of interior living space across four finished levels of thoughtful design in one of Toronto's best and coolest west-end communities. Rich in architectural character, updated and meticulously maintained, the home features an elegant open concept main floor with high ceilings, exposed brick, hardwood floors and a classic kitchen design. Double French doors lead to an outdoor space that feels like an oasis in the city. High privacy fences and low-maintenance landscaping provide the backdrop for entertaining or quiet time at home in the hot tub. The second floor offers three bedrooms, an updated four-piece bathroom and convenient laundry. Above that there's an exceptional full-floor primary retreat with extensive space including large wardrobes, four-piece ensuite with soaker tub, rainforest shower and heated floors. The private rooftop terrace opens onto treetop views perfect for quiet time, morning coffee, sunbathing or romantic dinners. On the finished lower level there's additional recreation space, a two-piece bathroom and ample storage. Rare and coveted two-car covered parking is accessible via municipal laneway and presents an opportunity for expansion with a future laneway residence. MacDonell Avenue itself is perfectly situated with access to Lake Ontario, the Gardiner, transit, downtown core and close to the city's premier green spaces. Steps from the city's outstanding cafés, restaurants and shops of Roncesvalles Village and Queen West. This is a peaceful, established street where neighbours put down roots, raise families and are community-builders. A remarkable balance of urban energy and residential tranquillity, 109 MacDonell is a home with room to grow, character to cherish and a neighbourhood to fall in love with.
