Imagine, a slow stroll along the bluffs to view a morning sunrise to the east overlooking Lake Ontario. Imagine a short walk to play tennis with friends or neighbours. Imagine your children or grandchildren playing road hockey or basketball on a dead-end street and then a quick walk over to a splash pad to cool off. Just imagine. Located in the sought-after tree lined pocket of Cliffcrest / Chine Dr. neighbourhood, this one and a half story home offers a cozy layout & sits on a large 6700 square foot lot with a 75 foot frontage. With 3 bedrooms, this home provides enough space for families, or, those looking for that extra room, you can add a large second story addition overtop the 2-car garage, that should give you lake views. Looking to relax? Enjoy your morning coffee on the back deck overlooking a quiet garden retreat, or, finish the day off with a cup of tea on the front porch, saying hello to neighbours and enjoying your cottage-like atmosphere. As mentioned, nearby, you can find the Scarborough Bluffs Tennis Club, Scarborough Crescent Park with a splash pad and a playground, as well as many walking & bike trails. For schools, walk to the popular Chine Dr. P.S. for Kindergarten to Grade 8 through a forested park path; Catholic elementary is St. Agatha for French immersion, or St Theresa Shrine for regular programming for Kindergarten to Grade 8; R.H. King for TDSB highschool and for TCDSB you have St. John Henry Newman Catholic High School. Easy access to TTC and Go Transit with a 2 stop ride to downtown Union Station in 15 minutes. Shopping is close by, as is many other amenities. Marinas, parks, Bluffers Park beach...the outdoors are at your doorstep. Whether you're a family, empty-nester, or someone looking to build their dream home, this home has endless possibilities to suit your needs. With a cottage-like neighbourhood atmosphere, and only 2 homes away from the top of the Bluffs, homes in this wonderful neighbourhood rarely come to the market.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Fair Market Value
At $864/sqft, this property is priced in line with current Scarborough market conditions. The pricing suggests the seller has done their homework. We may have modest room for negotiation, typically 2-4% in today's market.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Scarborough'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 Scarborough 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 Cliffcrest
I know Cliffcrest 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: Scarborough properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $3,958 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
