On the quiet cul-de-sac of Holmcrest Trail, backing onto the protected Highland Creek Ravine with views of Lake Ontario. Custom built by Vista Homes in 1995 as an interior designer's own home. Over 3,200 square feet, this 4+1 bedroom 2-storey home has a grand entry, formal living room with cathedral ceiling and arched windows, and a separate dining room for hosting big family dinners. For everyday living, the family room has a gas fireplace and serene views, and the office on the main floor makes working from home easy. The chef's kitchen is the centrepiece... large and modern, with stone counters, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and an eat-in area that looks straight out over the ravine. Walk out to the large deck and fenced yard that widens to 70 feet with nothing but trees behind you. The laundry room off the main floor with interior access to the oversized two-car garage makes daily routines simple. Upstairs, the bedrooms are exceptionally spacious, each with large closets and windows. The primary suite has its own sitting area overlooking the lake and ravine, plus a large walk-in closet and a 6-piece ensuite. Pristine hardwood floors run throughout the house. The open-concept walk-out basement with separate entrance is filled with sunlight from the sliding glass doors, and is a blank slate with enough room for both a rec room and an in-law suite (bathroom plumbing has been roughed in). New furnace (2025), heat pump-CAC (2026), and central vacuum (2025). Just minutes to the TTC and GO. Sir Oliver Mowat Collegiate Institute school district. This ravine lot at the end of a cul-de-sac with lake views is a rare find!

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $400/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Rouge's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Rouge are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Larger Home Realities
At 3,000 sqft, this is a substantial home. Budget approximately $400-600/month more for utilities compared to an average-sized home. Maintenance costs scale with size too - roof, HVAC, and cleaning all cost more. That said, space is a luxury that's hard to add later, and larger homes often have better resale in family-oriented neighbourhoods.
Excellent Flexibility
With 5 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Rouge.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
