There aren’t a lot of nice, affordable houses in Toronto. In fact, finding one feels almost like winning the lottery.
But every now and again, you get that winning ticket like with this charming 1.5-storey detached home in Eglinton Flats.
72 Lambton Ave. is a small home, with only two bedrooms and one bathroom, but it could be a great condo alternative.
The living room.
The home is actually really cute, with an open-concept main floor that’s been updated in all the right places.
The kitchen.
Namely, the kitchen has been updated. It has a breakfast bar, new counters and modern appliances.
The mudroom.
Off the kitchen, you’ll find a handy mudroom with storage space galore—perfect for stashing all those shoes, coats, and other odds and ends you own.
The primary bedroom.
The bedrooms are upstairs, and they’re small but cozy and could fit a queen size bed.
The bathroom.
The bathroom has been somewhat updated with a more modern-looking vanity, but it could maybe use a few more upgrades in the shower area.
The backyard.
As for outdoor space, there’s a lot, considering the property is 24 x 140 feet.
More lawn space in the backyard.
In short, the backyard is not just big; it’s a veritable outdoor haven, with plenty of room to kick back, relax, and even indulge your green thumb.
The garage.
The backyard also features a detached garage built in 2018, offering not only parking but ample storage for all your outdoor gear, tools, or even that DIY project you’ve been meaning to start.
The basement.
There’s also an unfinished basement if you run out of space in the garage.
The dining room.
But since the home is on such a big lot, there’s plenty of opportunity to put on an addition and increase the overall footprint of the home.
A view of the open concept main floor.
And it would be a good place to do this, since neighbourhood-wise, Mount Dennis is definitely up-and-coming.
The second bedroom.
Property values have been increasing 10 per cent year-over-year, and with the Eglinton LRT coming in, this will likely continue.
The outdoor patio off the mudroom.
72 Lambton Ave. is listed for $749,900.
