This red brick detached on Glengrove West has been in the same family for 27 years, and it shows in the well-kept original details. Main floor has a gas fireplace with brick surround, refinished hardwood floors, and a classic wood staircase. Kitchen's all-white with updated appliances and great pantry storage. Upstairs you'll find four bedrooms with the traditional family layout. The finished basement adds a fifth bedroom, a recreation room, a 4-piece bath, and a separate entrance, so it works great for a nanny or in-laws. You get 2,000 sq ft of living space on a 30.5 x 88.1 ft lot. Outside, the fenced backyard has an interlock patio, and there's a detached garage plus two parking spaces (including licensed front pad). House is steps to top schools like Havergal (0.3 km), a short walk to Lawrence subway (about 10 minutes), and near tons of shops and restaurants. Recent updates include central air, an upgraded boiler, and a newer hot water tank. Priced at $1.195M, it's one of the most affordable entry points into Lytton Park, where the median listing is $1.499M. Same family has maintained it well, but it's not a flip: you'll find some original character, and the lower level is a bit dated (last updated years ago).
