Welcome to 124 Roxborough Drive, a grand home in the prestigious North Rosedale neighbourhood. Built in 1911, this fully detached, red-brick property sits on a 40-foot wide, 113-foot-deep lot. The home, still with the original footprint, offers nearly 3000 square feet of living space and features many original character details including a beautiful sweeping staircase to the second floor. The main floor has well-proportioned principal rooms for hosting friends and family. The living room has a beautiful fireplace, flanked by built-in bookcases, and a south-facing bay window. The dining room connects to the kitchen through a butler's pantry and has French doors that open to a deck and access to an expansive, private and mature back garden sanctuary.
Take the primary staircase or back stairs to the 2nd floor, which offers an oversized sun-filled family room (or primary bedroom) with an additional fireplace. Two more bedrooms and a family bathroom are found on this floor. The 3rd floor has three additional bedrooms and a bathroom, all of which could be kept for children's rooms or converted into a fabulous primary retreat. The basement level has nearly 800sqft and 7ft ceiling height, potentially a great space for a recreation room, laundry, and an in-law or nanny suite. At the front of the property, a private driveway leads to a single-car garage.
The property is situated mid-block on a quiet, low-traffic, street in a prime location. It is located half a block away from Rosedale Park, two blocks to Chorley Park, and a network of trails through the ravines. Summerhill Market and a selection of cafes and boutiques are a short walk away. The property is close to top public and private schools, and is an easy drive to downtown. Available for the first time in over 60 years, 124 Roxborough Drive presents a fabulous opportunity for any family to redesign and renovate the space to create their own custom home.
Rosedale is one of the oldest and most prestigious neighborhoods in Toronto. Built among three ravines, preserved as parkland, the grand, picturesque homes are located on quiet winding roads and cul-de-sacs, with mature trees and lush foliage, that provide a stunning backdrop for this exclusive community. 124 Roxborough Drive has an optimal location for walking to Rosedale Park, which offers families access to tennis courts, soccer, hockey, a playground and hosts the annual May funfair. Walk a little further and you have access to Chorley Park and a selection of ravine walks, taking you to the well known Brickworks.
