Tucked into the Cliffside-Bluffs pocket of Cliffcrest, this detached bungalowsits minutes from Bluffer's Park, the Scarborough Bluffs, and the marina - the same stretch of shoreline that's drawn a wave of custom-home building as buyers compete for proximity to the lake.This is a property with three distinct paths forward. Move in and enjoy solid bones with room to update at your own pace.

Vacant and available for immediate possession. Sold in as-is condition.Location is the real asset here - a short walk to the Bluffs' trails and beaches, close to St. Clair Ave E and Kingston Rd for transit and shopping, and within reach of local schools.
