A Rare Offering! Quality Italian-Built, Custom Home on One of the Longest Lots in the Neighbourhood! Custom built by the original owners with the quality and craftsmanship that still shines through today, 16 Squires Ave is a truly rare opportunity. This fully detached, all-brick home is deceptively large inside-what appears from the street to be a bungalow is actually a thoughtfully designed backsplit offering an impressive 5 bedrooms, oversized family room and a completely separate bachelor/in-law suite with its own private side entrance. Flexible living for every generation. The self-contained lower-level space is ideal for an in-law suite, nanny, adult child, rental income or multigenerational living, giving your family the flexibility to adapt as life changes. And despite the home's generous size, there are not a lot of stairs, making the layout remarkably easy to manage for all generations with bathrooms on almost every level. The main level offers a renovated living room, dining room and spacious eat-in kitchen. A few steps down lead to 2 bedrooms, an oversized family room with walkout to the backyard and a 3-piece bath. A few steps up from the main level are 3 additional generous bedrooms and a beautifully renovated bathroom with double sinks, glass shower and soaker tub. Outside, discover what may be one of the longest and most desirable lots in the neighbourhood-over 200 feet deep! A private, pool-sized backyard offers exceptional privacy and endless possibilities. Enjoy dining under the stars on the expansive patio or retreat beneath the stunning mature evergreen.A long private driveway accommodates many cars. Set on a charming, tree-lined street where neighbours stay for generations, this is the kind of community that feels like home the moment you arrive.Quality. Space. Privacy. Flexibility. A truly rare gem that is increasingly difficult to find. **OPEN HOUSE WED OCT 7, 11AM-2PM**

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1233/sqft, this property is priced above the Danforth 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.
Market Position
At 20 days on site, this property has had reasonable exposure. It hasn't sold immediately (which often indicates overpricing), but isn't languishing either. There's likely room for a 3-5% negotiation from asking price.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Danforth 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.
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 Danforth.
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.
