About this home
Some homes are built for sale. This one is for living. Set on a quiet, intimate stretch of Babcombe Drive in the heart of Bayview Glen, 129 Babcombe offers something increasingly special: the warmth of long-time ownership, thoughtfully renovated and expanded around the way a family actually lives. With over 3,200 sq. ft. of well-designed living space, its five-bedroom layout offers remarkable flexibility. Two main-floor bedrooms are ideal for multigenerational living, aging parents, guests or a private office, while three bedrooms upstairs include an exceptionally spacious primary retreat with ensuite. A soaring two-storey foyer sets the tone, with warm hardwood floors, crown moulding, custom millwork and built-ins throughout. The generous kitchen features extensive wood cabinetry, stone counters and abundant storage, while a proper formal dining room and expansive family room offer space to gather before opening directly to the private backyard and beautifully maintained in-ground pool. Then there is the land: a flat, private 60 x 149 ft lot offering exceptional space today and exciting possibilities for the future. A two-car garage and finished lower level with natural-stone fireplace add another layer of function to a home where space was designed to be used, not simply admired. All within walking distance of Bayview Glen Public School and in the Thornlea Secondary School catchment. This isn't a house assembled for the market. It has been carefully designed, thoughtfully improved and genuinely enjoyed by the family who called it home. Now, it's ready for the next one.
