448 Montrose Ave, Toronto, Ontario M6G 3H1

A rare opportunity in highly coveted Bickford Park, 448 Montrose is a fully detached 4 generously sized bedrooms, 4 bath home and includes a legal 1+den and 1 bath basement apartment with separate entry and climate control that will hit all your check boxes. The location speaks for itself -- with a 95 walk score, 91 transit score, and 99 bike score. Steps from the highly coveted Montrose Jr. PS, and Harbord Collegiate make day to day school parenting easier to manage. It's a 5-minute walk to Korean town, Christie Subway, Christie Pits, and Bickford Park (if you got dogs, they're going to make friends fast). Originally taken back to the studs and redesigned by TACT Design in 2012, the home was expanded in 2023 with a striking 3-storey addition (1/3 of the house is practically new). Built for comfort and energy efficiency, it features spray foam insulation throughout, sound insulation between all floors, and independent HVAC systems for (1) the main house, (2) the basement suite, and (3) the new addition. The open-concept main floor is ideal for entertaining, featuring a chef's kitchen (anchored with an induction cooktop island) that connects seamlessly with living, dining, family, and outdoor spaces. The new addition includes a sunken basement bedroom, main-floor bonus room (currently breakfast), mudroom, an enlarged second-floor bedroom, and a top-floor primary retreat with personalized touches such as heated bathroom floors and motorized blinds. Mechanically sound with 3 A/Cs, 2 furnaces, 1 air handler, tankless water heater for comfort, and complete waterproofing (2 sump pumps, backflow valve) for peace of mind. Thoughtful landscaping in the front and rear, this residence requires low outdoor maintenance and comes equipped with an outdoor gas line and a large 2-car garage. A thoughtfully rebuilt home in a vibrant, walkable, and park-filled neighborhood. The house is best appreciated in person, and a lifetime of memories for you and your family await.
