Birchcliffe-Cliffside Toronto M1N 3X7

When we first walked into this home, it felt like the perfect fit - a space that was neither too big nor too small, just right for our family. We were drawn to its recent renovations and the practical layout with all three bedrooms on the same floor, while the spacious basement gave us the flexibility to create a cozy rec room, guest suite, or even an Airbnb. The backyard quickly became a favourite too - its large, private, and has tall trees that give it a cottage-like feel. Many mornings, I'd enjoy a quiet coffee on the deck, looking up at the green canopy above. The backyard shed became my creative retreat, a versatile space perfect for work, hobbies, or just a quiet escape. And when the kids were younger, watching them laugh and play in every corner of the yard created memories that still fill this space. Beyond the house itself, the neighbourhood of Cliffside has been incredible. With parks, restaurants, and the renowned Scarborough Bluffs all within reach, it's a balance of urban and suburban life that's hard to find. We loved being able to walk our kids to John A. Leslie Elementary, just five minutes away, and that the GO Train is close by, making city commutes a breeze. Some of Toronto's best Thai food is also just a quick stroll down the street, making dinners out an easy and enjoyable treat. Over time, we've made intentional upgrades to reflect our values and create a home that's as kind to the planet as it is to its owners. The solar panels, high-efficiency heat pump, and updated roof and electrical system have transformed this house into a nearly zero-emissions property. These changes don't just lower your carbon footprint - they bring real savings on energy costs, making it a home that gives back to both the environment and your wallet.
