Set on a quiet, family-friendly street in Chaplin Estates, 29 Maxwell Avenue is a move-in-ready four-bedroom newer home that blends classic character with modern comfort, all in one of midtown Toronto's most loved neighbourhoods. Inside, a bright foyer with two closets offers a warm welcome. Natural light fills the living room and flows into the dining room, where a handy butler door to the kitchen makes hosting dinners with family and friends a breeze. The kitchen sits at the heart of the main floor, with quality appliances, custom cabinets, a breakfast bar, and a generous centre island. A breakfast area, bright family room and a powder room make the main floor the ideal layout for modern family living. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private walkout, a walk-in closet, a fireplace and a five-piece bathroom with an oversized soaking tub. The second bedroom enjoys its own ensuite, while two other comfortable bedrooms share a family bathroom, and a laundry closet on this floor adds everyday convenience. The lower level is made for downtime: a media room with built-in speakers, a projector, and a wet bar, plus a large recreation room with a walkout to the backyard, great for after-school playdates or a potential mudroom. A flexible fifth bedroom or home office and a four-piece bathroom and pantry complete the space. Outside, a stone patio and low-maintenance astroturf yard are ready for relaxing or entertaining. The detached garage holds one car, with a widened private driveway for four more. Minutes from Eglinton Park, North Toronto Community Centre, the new LRT and TTC, and some of the city's most sought-after public and private schools, this is a wonderful home for a family's next chapter.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1498/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.
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 Forest Hill.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 5 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.
