About this home

Gorgeous on Gowan - your opportunity for a life well-placed in the heart of East York. Step inside this fully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom all-brick detached home and the care is immediately apparent: light-filled principal rooms flow seamlessly for living and entertaining, anchored by a fireplace, custom built-ins and a main-floor powder room, a rarity in the area. The kitchen shines with a stylish backsplash and modern appliances, while updated bathrooms offer heated floors, and a skylight floors the stairwell with warm light. Extensive upgrades - roof, flooring, baseboards, and staircase - round out the interior. Downstairs you'll find a fully renovated basement that adds valuable extra living space. Beyond the front door lies one of East York's most beloved family communities - tree-lined, low-traffic, and known for its warmth and safety. Kids walk to Chester Elementary, Westwood Middle School, and East York Collegiate, while evenings bring street hockey and neighbours who know each other by name. Enjoy a freshly landscaped, fully fenced backyard with deck, plus an attached garage with additional parking/storage. Steps to transit and parks, minutes to the Danforth and downtown - this turnkey home offers the best of connected, family-friendly living. This home is the next step for your family.
