Old South charm meets coastal-inspired living at 28 Thomas Janes Dr. Set along one of the neighbourhood's most desirable tree-lined streets, this distinctive two-storey brick beauty feels like an escape in the heart of the city. Thoughtfully tended landscaping, interlocking paver driveway and an inviting covered porch set the scene for the character within. A spacious foyer welcomes you inside, where classic wainscoting brings timeless elegance to the formal dining room. Through French doors, a flex room offers space for a sitting room, home office or guest retreat. The kitchen pairs soft two toned cabinetry with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and a decorative backsplash for a fresh, seaside-inspired feel. The kitchen overlooks the sunken living room garnished with a fireplace, wet bar and views of the backyard. Follow the spiral staircase to an expansive primary retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and 3pc ensuite featuring a tiled walk-in shower. Patio doors open onto an upper balcony overlooking the backyard oasis, a dreamy setting for morning coffee. Two more generously sized bedrooms & a 4pc bathroom complete the upper level, with a 2nd staircase to the main floor. The partially finished lower level offers space for hobbies and crafts, along with storage, laundry and utilities. Additional laundry hookups are available in an upstairs bedroom closet. The fully fenced backyard is your vacation-at-home escape, featuring a heated inground pool, raised patio off the living room, additional concrete patio and pool pump house, perfect for leisurely poolside afternoons and lingering summer evenings. Updates include the driveway and composite fencing (approx 2024), bay window (2026), patio doors (approx 2024), most windows (approx 2018) and gutter guards (approx 2021).

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $375/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.
Market Position
At 16 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 London South 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.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to London South. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
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.
