If open concept, volume and tons of natural light are your thing, look no further. The main floor was designed without interior load-bearing walls, creating a truly open, uninterrupted living space. Smooth 9 ft ceilings on both the main and second floors, three large skylights, windows on three sides and two huge 6 ft wide by 7.5 ft high glass sliding doors spanning the rear of the home combine to flood the space with natural light and create a seamless connection to the backyard. Natural engineered wood flooring runs through the principal rooms and hallways, complemented by 8" baseboards throughout. The impressive kitchen features gas cooking, abundant full-height cabinetry, stone countertops and a large centre island. Modern bathrooms feature double sinks and heated porcelain tile floors. The primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet plus a second large closet, both with built-ins. The basement, with a separate side entrance, 7 ft 6 in ceiling height and rough-in for a bathroom, awaits your finishing. Outside, the deep backyard features a generous deck with its own sitting area and gas BBQ line, plus a large modern shed roughed-in with power and ethernet. There's a lot of tech built into this home: ethernet wiring throughout, ceiling speakers on the main floor, and smart lighting and motorized shades connected to Google Home for voice control (and can be used with Apple, Alex/Amazon, etc). Solar panels tied to the grid resulted in a total electricity bill of just $235 over the past 12 months. See the listing attachment for additional tech details. Nestled in the heart of the Humewood community, just a short walk to St. Clair and Cedarvale Park, only a block from Humewood Community School and a 5 min drive to Leo Baeck Day School. Legal front parking.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1179/sqft, this property is priced above the Forest Hill average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Forest Hill'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 Forest Hill 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.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
About Humewood-Cedarvale
I know Humewood-Cedarvale well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Forest Hill properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $7,371 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
