This brick bungalow sits on a 50x150 foot lot in Highland Creek, with a wide private driveway that fits two cars and leaves plenty of room for guests. The main floor gets flooded with light from those near-floor-to-ceiling windows, and the hardwood floors run through the main living spaces. You've got three bedrooms up here, including a primary that easily takes a king bed, plus a 4-piece bath and an eat-in kitchen with a gas range. Head downstairs and you'll find a separate entrance leading to a rec room, a fourth bedroom, and another 3-piece bath. That lower level makes a solid in-law setup or a private hangout for older kids, though it's only partially finished so you can put your own stamp on it. Outside, the deep backyard is private and ready for gardening or a play set, but honestly, the smart money here might be on the land itself. It's just under a million at $989,000, and with nearby homes going for more, there's room to renovate or rebuild down the line. You're 2 minutes to the 401, 1.9 klicks from UTSC, and close to Morningside Park and the Toronto Zoo if you need a weekend escape. Solid bones, great lot, and a location that's hard to beat.
