About this home

Welcome to 278 Woburn Ave - a 1937 all-brick residence, ideally located in one of Toronto's most sought-after neighbourhoods. This character home blends timeless original details with thoughtful, ongoing updates made throughout the current ownership. Inside, original solid maple doors, hardwood floors on the upper level, and beautifully preserved crown moulding and trim speak to the craftsmanship of the era, while in-floor radiant heat warms many principal rooms for year-round comfort. The open-concept kitchen is a wonderful gathering space, with a walk-out to a private deck overlooking a fenced, landscaped backyard - perfect for entertaining or quiet mornings outdoors. Beyond its character charm, this home has been tastefully and extensively updated behind the scenes: drains, electrical, plumbing, waterproofing, and insulation have all been improved throughout ownership, alongside upgrades to every room in the house. The basement has been underpinned, adding valuable living space and structural integrity. A rare opportunity to own a home that offers the warmth and peace of mind. Steps to John Wanless Public School, Lawrence Park Collegiate, Yonge Street amenities and Lawrence subway station.
