This property is all about the land. 92.98 feet across, nearly 500 feet deep, sitting on a south-facing bluff above Lake Ontario. With a 1,000+ foot setback from the road, you're surrounded by mature trees and total privacy. The existing bungalow is solid, well-maintained, and honestly charming. It has 3 bedrooms upstairs (one is used as a den), plus a 1-bedroom walkout basement apartment. You get open living spaces, two wood-burning fireplaces, hardwood floors, and a sunroom that's perfect for morning coffee. But let's be real. Most buyers will see this as a rare development opportunity. The lot is zoned for a single-family home, but with this frontage and depth, there's huge potential to renovate or rebuild. Just keep in mind you'll need TRCA approval for any work given the bluff location. Location is another huge win. It's a quiet, tree-lined street in a pocket of Toronto that feels secluded, yet you're just minutes to the GO train for downtown access. Plus, you've got Guild Inn Gardens just 2 km away and Scarborough Bluffs less than 5 km. High schools like Sir Wilfrid Laurier are within 2 km, and Scarborough Hospital is under 4 km. Realistically, $2.5M gets you a solid bungalow on a rare, large property in the area, so you're paying for land potential. The market's active, though. Homes are selling fast, so be ready to move if this is your type of place.
